About this map

Dardanelle and the southern edge of Russellville flank the Arkansas River at a historic crossing point where the Yell County - Dardanelle Courthouse stands as a focal point of local administration. The topography is defined by significant elevations like Dardanelle Mtn, Dardanelle Rock, and the eastern slopes of Mt Nebo, which overlook a network of watercourses including Smiley Bayou and Harris Cr.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites across the landscape, ranging from larger grounds like Brearley Cem and Norristown Cem to smaller family plots such as Banks Hill Family Cem and Thompson Family Cem. Rural life outside the primary river towns is marked by smaller community clusters like Prosperity, Ard, and Pisgah, often anchored by landmarks like the Oak Grove Methodist Church. This survey provides a clear view of the transition from the riverfront urban grid to the surrounding peaks and agricultural valleys.
