About this map

De Queen serves as the focal point of this Sevier County survey, situated at a crossroads of commerce and community in southwest Arkansas. The landscape is defined by its water systems, from the expansive De Queen Lake and Story Creek in the north to the winding paths of Bear Cr and Wilson Cr that flow through the timberlands. The town itself exhibits a structured grid of residential streets and essential services, including the Cossatot Community Coll of the Univ of Arkansas and Herman Direk Memorial Park.

Rural life is preserved in the surrounding settlements of Avon, Pullman, and Process City, each connected by a network of county roads. For genealogists, the map is particularly valuable for its documentation of numerous local burial grounds such as Avon Cem, Redman Cem, and Smyrna Cem. These sites, along with the Railroad Ln corridor, highlight the historical infrastructure of a region built on agriculture and transit.
