About this map

Crowleys Ridge rises prominently as a distinct geological landform within this Northeast Arkansas landscape, straddling the border between Greene Co and Craighead Co. This elevated corridor provides a notable contrast to the surrounding lowlands, hosting numerous family burial grounds such as Clarks Cem and Woods Cem. The settlement pattern follows the ridge and the transportation corridor of Bus 49, connecting the southern reaches of Paragould and Bethel with the growing community of Brookland and the northern outskirts of Jonesboro.

The map reveals a mix of rural crossroads and established townships, including Goobertown, Antioch, and Aetna. Waterways like Thompson Cr and Birch Cr drain the terrain, while the eastern flats are characterized by a precise grid of agricultural roads and drainage features like Ditch Levee Rd. This modern survey documents the continued importance of historical locations like Tunis and Burnt Hill alongside contemporary infrastructure like the Brookland School Rd E.
