2014 Map of Bodcaw

About this map

Bodcaw and the small settlement of Azor anchor this landscape along the border of Nevada and Hempstead counties. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Bodcau Cr, Little Bodcau Cr, and Whitten Br, which carve through the low-lying hills of southwestern Arkansas. This era reveals a mix of traditional agricultural land and modern industry, specifically the Bodcaw Oil Field located in the eastern portion of the quadrangle. Genealogists will find a significant distribution of family and community burial grounds across the area, from Ebenezer Cem in the west to Dunn Cem and Corinth Cem near the oil field. The rural infrastructure is maintained by a grid of numbered roads like AR 53 Hwy and Nevada 11 Rd, connecting dispersed homesteads and marking the long-standing township and range boundaries of the region.
