2014 Map of Buckner

About this map

The boundary between Lafayette and Columbia counties is defined by the winding course of Bayou Dorcheat, which bisects this southwest Arkansas landscape. The town of Stamps serves as the primary hub in the west, situated near Lake June and Crooked Branch. To the east, the Buckner Oil and Gas Field indicates the industrial character of the region, while the small settlements of Buckner, McKamie, and Apalco are scattered along the local road network and US Highway 82. Genealogists will find several burial sites throughout the quadrangle, including Buckner Cem, Lakeside Cem, and Patterson Cem. In the southeast, the waters of Lake Columbia begin to dominate the terrain, fed by creeks such as Beech Cr and Holly Cr. This digital revision of the topography provides a precise look at the rural intersections and watercourses that have shaped these timber and oil-producing lands for decades.
