About this map

The Saline River carves a winding path along the boundary between Sevier and Howard counties, serving as the primary geographical anchor for this portion of Southwest Arkansas. The town of Dierks serves as the local hub, characterized by a grid of streets such as Front St and Mill Complex Rd, and the presence of Clanson Memorial Park. The landscape is a mix of small settlements and rural homesteads, connected by a network of timber and private roads like Weyco Rd and Possum Hollow Rd.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds across the area, including Greens Chapel Cem near Lebanon and Potts Cem south of Atwood. The historical significance of the river crossing is noted at the Salt Works Bridge, while smaller communities such as Bethany, Provo, and several named cemeteries like Sunshine Cem and Wynn Cem provide clear markers of the region's long-standing rural settlement patterns.
