2017 Map of Eminence

About this map

Lakeport and the surrounding alluvial lands of the Mississippi Delta define this 2017 survey at the border of Chicot and Washington counties. The landscape is heavily marked by its proximity to the Mississippi River, featuring distinctive riverine formations such as Moon Chute, Cornfield Chute, and Worthington Towhead. The map captures the transition between organized agriculture and the complex waterway systems of the basin, including Otter Lake and several sluggish bayous like Soso Bayou and Eminence Bayou. For the local historian, the map preserves the locations of the Lakeport Cem and North Star Cem, alongside small settlements like Eminence and Harwood. The intricate network of local roads, such as Silver Dollar Rd and Honeycamp Break Rd, reflects the rural development and land use patterns of this river-bound region in southeastern Arkansas.
