About this map

Viola and Gepp anchor the southern reaches of this landscape along the Arkansas-Missouri border, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of seasonal and perennial waterways. The Bennetts River winds through the central portion of the area, joined by numerous tributaries such as Poor Hollow Br and Cotter Br. This topography creates a series of isolated ridges and hollows, including the notable Turkey Knob and the low-lying Mashie Hollow.

Genealogists will find several rural burial grounds established here, such as the uniquely named Gobbler Trot Cem, as well as Hurst Cem, Pickren Cem, and Flora Cem. Small northern outposts like Ott and Vidette indicate a history of dispersed rural settlement. Transportation is facilitated by a grid of county roads and more primitive routes like Elmwood Trl and Jaycee Hollow Trl, reflecting the area's continued reliance on local infrastructure to navigate the drainage basins of Big Cr and Little Cr.
