1939 Map of Wynne

About this map

Forrest City and Wynne anchor this 1930s survey of eastern Arkansas, where the L'Anguille River meanders through a landscape defined by its agricultural and transit heritage. The map documents the persistent influence of early pioneer paths, most notably the Old Military Road which cuts through Pinetree and Macedonia. The rural economy of the pre-war era is evident in the distribution of community hubs like Wick Mill and the numerous rail stops such as McManus Spur and Bott Spur along the Missouri Pacific line.
