2014 Map of Blue Eye

About this map

Oakgrove and Blue Eye anchor the Missouri-Arkansas border region in this 2014 survey, where the deep drainages of the Ozark Plateau define the local geography. The landscape is characterized by a high concentration of family and community burial grounds, including the Blue Eye Cem, Boyd Cem, and Hale Cem, which provide essential touchpoints for genealogical research in Stone and Carroll counties. The terrain is deeply incised by watercourses like Little Indian Cr and Stillhouse Cr, creating numerous named hollows such as Buzzard Roost Hollow and Stillhouse Hollow. At the southern edge of the map, the small settlement of Cisco sits near Pilot Knob, while the northern border is partially sheltered by the Mark Twain National Forest. The road network, dominated by AR 21 Highway N and Ar-311, traces the ridgelines to connect these dispersed upland communities.
