About this map

Graysonia sits at the southern edge of this Arkansas landscape, where the Antoine River cuts a winding path through the borderlands of Clark and Pike counties. The area is defined by a series of small, dispersed settlements including Shawmut, Nutts, and Majors, each connected by a network of rural routes like Old Hot Spring Rd and Center Ridge Rd. The terrain is punctuated by significant elevations such as Chalybeate Mtn and Round Top Mtn, which overlook a watershed drained by numerous creeks including Little Antoine Cr, Skipper Cr, and Gentry Cr.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites across the quadrangle, ranging from the Alpine Cem in the northeast to the centrally located Humphrey Cem and Bethsaida Cem. These markers, along with Straightway Cem and Thomas Cem, suggest a history of tight-knit rural communities and family homesteads that have persisted through the modern era. The presence of Dwiggins Lake and the meandering Terre Noire Cr further emphasize the water-rich topography of this central Arkansas region.
