About this map

Crawfordsville serves as a central hub in this section of Crittenden County, where a network of rural routes like Prison Camp Rd and Marotti Rd connect small farming communities. The landscape is defined by the alluvial patterns of the Mississippi Delta, marked by numerous watercourses such as Dry Bayou, Alligator Bayou, and the winding Fifteenmile Bayou. These waterways dictate the placement of local settlements and infrastructure, including the crossroads at Vincent and the small siding at Ebony.

Family and community history is deeply rooted in the numerous burial grounds scattered across the quadrangle. Researchers can locate Bethel Cem, Saint Johns Cem, and Shiloh Cem, which often sit adjacent to historical church sites or family farmsteads. The eastern edge of the map shows the encroaching development of West Memphis and Marion, illustrating the transition from open Delta farmland to modern suburban expansion near Roseboro Island.
