2020 Map of Dalark

About this map

Dalark and the surrounding timberlands of Clark and Dallas counties are defined by a network of creeks and small settlements centered near the Ouachita River. This landscape is particularly rich for genealogical research, as it preserves the locations of numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Bethlehem Cem, McClanahan Cem, and Atchley Cem. The terrain is characterized by the low-lying White Oak Slough and the winding paths of L'Eau Frais Cr and Pearson Cr. Small unincorporated communities like Griffithtown, Joan, and Knoxville are connected by a grid of rural county roads, including SW Reed Town Rd and Piney Grove Church Rd, illustrating the persistent agricultural and rural residential patterns of central Arkansas.
