About this map

Red Bird River meanders through this portion of Leslie County, anchoring a landscape defined by narrow hollows and high knobs. The river corridor serves as the primary artery for local settlements, connecting Marcum, Creekville, and Roark. In the southern reaches, the Roark Post Office remains a focal point for the community near the confluence of Upper Jacks Creek and Dillion Branch.

Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of family-named landmarks and resting places, such as Hoskins Cemetery, Holland Cemetery, and Arnetts Cemetery. The terrain is deeply inscribed with local history through names like Hog Hollow, Negro Hollow, and Groundhog Hollow. Transportation follows the natural contours of the land, with routes like Arnetts Fork Rd and Elisha Creek Rd tracing the various forks and branches that feed into the main river system, while the Big Double Creek Picnic Area highlights the area's transition into managed recreational space.
