2017 Map of Fountain Hill

About this map

Fountain Hill serves as the primary settlement hub for this corner of Ashley County, situated at the junction of several key local routes including Wilson Rd and Ashley Road 85. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Fountain Cr and Flat Cr, which drain the lowlands between the scattered farming communities. Significant genealogical value is found in the high density of small burial grounds, such as Kirkpatrick Cem, Flat Creek Cem, and Norris Hill Cem, which are often the only remaining indicators of early family homesteads in the Roark area. To the southeast, the terrain transitions toward the wetlands of Chemin-A-Haut Cr, while smaller water features like Shiloh Lake provide landmarks within the extensive grid of county roads that have come to define modern rural Arkansas transit.
