About this map

The Holly Springs National Forest encompasses the majority of this Benton County landscape, where small rural communities like Bethel and Pine Grove are defined by their proximity to the winding Tippah River. The terrain is characterized by numerous hollows and hills, such as Renick Hill and Richmond Hollow, with a network of local roads including Tippah River Road and Pine Grove Road connecting scattered family homesteads and local landmarks.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites across the quadrangle, ranging from Lonoke Cem and Palestine Cem to smaller family plots like Elliott Cem. The economic activity of the era is evident in several Sandpit and Sandpits locations, alongside the smaller Claypit in the eastern section. This 2000 revision by the Forest Service provides a clear view of the hydrological network, including Chilli Creek, Pechahalee Creek, and the North Fork and South Fork tributaries that drain the forest floor.
