Fort Smith and Van Buren anchor this riverfront survey, where the Arkansas River serves as the dividing line between Arkansas and Oklahoma. The map documents the strategic importance of Belle Point and the Fort Smith National Historic Site, marking the frontier legacy of the region. To the north, the Lee Creek Reservoir and the winding Lee Creek dominate the terrain before meeting the river. Genealogists will find a significant concentration of burial grounds, from the large Fort Smith National Cemetery to smaller local sites like Czarnikow Cem and Peevyhouse Cem. The landscape transitions from the urban grid of the city centers to smaller settlements like Greenwood Junction, Dora, and Moffett, reflecting the continued development of the tri-county border area where Sebastian, Crawford, and Sequoyah counties meet.
