About this map

Byron and Bexar anchor this rural landscape in the Ozark foothills, where a network of county roads follows the winding drainage patterns of the Strawberry River. The area is characterized by a high concentration of small, family-named landmarks and rural burial grounds, including Liberty Cem, Talley Cem, and Harmony Cem, which serve as vital touchpoints for local genealogy.

The southern edge of the map tracks the transition into northern Izard County, marked by the settlements of Union and Oxford. Water is the defining natural feature here, with numerous named tributaries such as North Brushy Creek, Greasy Creek, and Cochran Branch dissecting the terrain. Near the southeastern corner, the Spiritual Development Lake stands out as a unique modern landmark amidst the traditional farm-and-timber setting, while Shady Grove occupies the northern reaches near the Fulton County line.
