About this map

The Saline River winds through this section of Cleveland County, shaping a landscape of bottomlands and interconnected waterways such as Grisly Creek and Derrieusseaux Creek. Small rural settlements like Gum Springs and Cermak dot the area, linked by a network of timber and farm roads. The proximity to the river is evident at Canoe Landing and Charnnings Ferry, highlighting the importance of water access in this region.

Genealogists can find significant local history in the area's burial grounds, including Grace Cemetery, Seymore Cemetery, and Camp Springs Cemetery. The presence of Clements Pond and the Clements Pond Dam reflects localized water management, while Wilson Lake serves as a prominent landmark in the north. This survey provides a clear look at the intersection of public land and private property lines as they existed at the start of the 2010s.
