About this map

La Grue Bayou meanders through the central part of this Arkansas landscape, defining the character of the settlements and agricultural tracts near Plainview. The area is marked by a complex system of water management and natural catchments, including the Abernathy Reservoir, Shook Reservoir, and several family-named water bodies like J Gunnell Lake and McGraw Lake. These features, along with the Wetlands area, suggest a low-lying terrain historically focused on drainage and irrigation. Small communities such as Immanuel and LaGrue serve as local anchors, while the presence of numerous family and community burial sites, such as Bethel Cem, Shiloh Cem, and the Saint Olive Cem, provide significant touchpoints for genealogists tracing the established families of Arkansas County. To the northeast, the terrain shifts near the White River and Mount Adams, where the boundary between Arkansas and Monroe County is clearly delineated.
