2024 Map of Alread

About this map

Archey Creek and its many winding tributaries define this portion of the Ozark landscape where the Searcy Co and Van Buren Co line is marked by Co Line Rd. Small, dispersed settlements like Chimes, Woolum, and Copeland are linked by a network of county roads and loops that navigate the complex system of hollows and ridges, including Lick Hollow and Trace Ridge. The terrain is characterized by significant elevation changes, notably at Reves Knob and Pine Mtn. In the south, the village of Alread sits near the headwaters of the South Fork Little Red River, while Liberty Cem serves as a central landmark for local genealogists tracking families across the township boundaries of t13n r16w and t12n r16w. The mapping of these drainages, such as North Castleberry Creek and Opossum Walk Creek, illustrates the drainage patterns that shaped early settlement in this region.
