1993 Map of Cecil

About this map

Ozark Lake and the winding Arkansas River dominate this Franklin County landscape, where the waters are overlooked by the prominent Citadel Bluff. The settlement of Cecil serves as a local hub, situated near a network of rural roads and utility infrastructure, including a prominent Pipeline corridor. The area's topography is defined by the significant rise of Mill Creek Mountain, which separates the river valley from the southern drainages of Mill Creek and Hurricane Creek. Numerous small cemeteries and community landmarks are scattered throughout the hills, providing a clear record of local settlement patterns. Genealogists may find value in the specific locations of the Berkley Cem, Price Springs Cem, and Patterson Cem, while smaller settlements like Meg and Poping indicate the dispersed nature of these upland Arkansas communities during the late twentieth century.
