2017 Map of Byron

About this map

Oxford and Byron anchor the central hills of Fulton and Izard counties, where the high Ozark plateau begins its descent toward the White River basin. The Strawberry River winds across the north-central terrain, joined by numerous drainage systems including N Brushy Cr and Greasy Cr. This landscape reflects a long-standing agricultural and rural residential pattern, with small crossroads like Bexar, Union, and Shady Grove serving as local focal points between the larger townships. For those researching family heritage, the map identifies several local burial sites, including Liberty Cem, Talley Cem, and Harmony Cem. To the southeast, the terrain reaches toward the Spiritual Development Lake, while the network of roads—from Byron Rd to the more modern Co Rd 16—illustrates how transportation corridors have adapted to the area's many valleys and ridges.
