About this map

L'Anguille River meanders through the eastern portion of this landscape in Cross County, defining a complex drainage system that includes Brushy Creek and Black Fork. The mid-1980s terrain is characterized by a high-density network of irrigation infrastructure, specifically numerous segments marked Irr Canal, which crisscross the agricultural plots between the larger waterways of First Creek and Second Creek.

Settlement patterns center on the small community of Central, located near the southern boundary, alongside Fair Oaks and Tilton. For genealogists and local historians, the presence of a local Cem provides a specific point of interest for family research. The map captures an era of intensive land management where natural creek beds and engineered water channels worked in tandem to support the regional farm economy.
