2014 Map of Columbus

About this map

Columbus serves as the central hub of this Hempstead County landscape, situated at the intersection of Ar 73 and Hempstead 13 RD. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Sandy Bois d'Arc Cr, Plum Cr, and Yellow Cr, which shape the rural property lines and road layouts of the early 21st century. For genealogists, the map is particularly valuable for its documentation of local burial grounds, including the Mounds Cem near Columbus and the remote Section Sixteen Cem to the northeast. Small settlements such as Yancy and Schooley appear along the northern corridors, connected by a web of county roads like Stone RD and Liberty RD. The border between Howard Co and Hempstead Co runs vertically through the western portion of the sheet, providing a precise boundary for researchers tracking land records across county lines.
