About this map

Aubrey serves as the central hub in this Lee County landscape, where the agricultural grid of the Arkansas Delta is defined by an intricate network of waterways and local roads. The terrain is shaped by the meandering paths of Big Creek and Little Hog Tusk Creek, which feed into several prominent bodies of water including McCloud Lake, McNulty Lake, and Little Mossy Lake. The map reveals a high density of small rural communities and named crossroads such as Thomasville, New Hope, and the uniquely named Turkey Scratch in the southern reaches.

For those tracing local history or family lineages, this survey is particularly valuable for its documentation of numerous burial grounds. From Holland Cemetery in the north to Wilson Cemetery near Big Creek Corner, these sites are often associated with early settlement clusters and churches. The concentration of cemeteries, including Spring Creek Cemetery and Antioch Cemetery, suggests a long-standing rural community structure centered around the fertile lands of the Delta.
