About this map

Blevins serves as the primary hub in this portion of Hempstead County, where local life is organized around a network of country roads such as Hempstead Road 257 and County Rd-261. The landscape is defined by the dendritic drainage of several prominent waterways, including South Fork Ozan Creek to the north and the wide-reaching De Ann Creek that bisects the central terrain. Smaller communities like Dunlap and De Ann anchor the eastern and southern reaches of the map.

Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several family and community burial grounds, including Blevins Cemetery, Maxwell Cemetery, and Shorter Cemetery. The presence of numerous small reservoirs and their associated structures, such as Royston Lake One Dam and T A Smith Lake Dam, suggests a rural economy tied to managed water resources and agriculture. The southeastern corner is notably marked by the winding courses of Caruse Creek and Arnold Creek, illustrating the complex hydrology of this Arkansas region.
