About this map

The Buffalo River snakes through this section of Searcy and Marion counties, carving a deep network of hollows and ridges defined by a traditional Ozark settlement pattern. Small communities and named landmarks are scattered throughout the winding terrain, including Cozahome, Evening Star, and Mull. The mapping reveals the historical importance of river crossings and local geography, with sites like Brantley Ford and Weast Ford providing essential access points across the water.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial sites preserved on the landscape, such as DeSoto Cemetery near Little Panther Creek and Rock Creek Cemetery further south. The nomenclature of the area is particularly descriptive of its geography, featuring uniquely named points such as Jim Hogskin Hollow, Roaring Rock, and Silver Hollow Shoal. These labels suggest a landscape where every fold in the earth was identified by early residents, from Coon Hollow to Fishtrap Hollow.
