2017 Map of Amity

About this map

Welsh, Glenwood, and Amity anchor this area of southwestern Arkansas where the Caddo River winds through the hills. The landscape is defined by its network of watercourses and elevation, featuring prominent landmarks like Sugarloaf Knob, Little Mtn, and the lower reaches of Trap Mtn. These peaks overlook the southern edge of the Ouachita National Forest, which covers the northwestern portion of the map. Genealogists and local historians will find numerous small family and community burial grounds, including Coker Cem, Shiloh Cem, and Newcomb Cem. The presence of Kirksey Reservoir and the western edge of De Gray Lake illustrates the managed water resources and drainage patterns toward the southeast. The area is intersected by several county boundaries, showing where Clark, Montgomery, Pike, and Hot Spring counties meet amidst a dense grid of rural roads such as Pigeon Roost Rd and Sugar Loaf Rd.
