2014 Map of Burnville

About this map

Greenwood and the neighboring hills of Sebastian and Logan Counties are defined by the prominent east-west ridges of the Ouachita foothills. Devils Backbone Ridge and Pinnacle Ridge provide a topographical spine through the center of the sheet, separating the drainages of Vache Grasse Creek to the north and Washburn Creek to the south. This 2014 survey documents the modern layout of rural settlements like Burnville, Milltown, and Carnis, where residential growth extends along the historic corridors of Ar-10 and Ar-96. For those researching local history, the map identifies several significant burial grounds, including Mc Connel, Greenwood Cem, and Dawson Memorial Cem, which are often the last standing indicators of early family homesteads in this part of Arkansas. The terrain is deeply carved by numerous branches like Vineyard Br and Henry Br, illustrating the hydrological network that shaped early land use in the Washburn Mountains area.
