I have a copy of an orginal map of Arkansas 1863, it is entitled Colton's Railroad & Township Map of Arkansas published by J.H. Colton New York 1863. It is noted on the map for its accuracy. It shows several railroads on the map that were planned because they were not there in 1863. As for accuracy its route for the L.R. & Memphis R.R. is way off. It passes a few miles north of Brownsville not (Brownsville Station) then it crosses the White River about half way between DeValls Bluff And Des Arc and passes a couple of miles south of Madison. About the only accurate part of the railroad route is it starts at Huntersville and ends at Hopefield. Back to Brownsville Station it sits on hwy 70 where the ballparks are today. There was a road that went north to the town of Brownsville almost two miles, I have walked it many times. It leaves the ballpark area and crosses Bayou Two Prairie you can only cross this when the bayou when it is very low. The road then passes near the Harris business and crosses I-40 and runs parallel to hwy 31 on the east side up to the cemetery and in to the town of Brownsville.
