Jonesboro sits at the northern edge of this landscape, where the transition from the flatlands to the elevated terrain of the Ridge defines the local geography. Small rural settlements like Greenfield, Mulligan, and Gaulett are scattered across the plains, often positioned near the L'Anguille River or its various tributaries such as Big Cr and Barker Cr. The map reveals a high density of rural burial grounds, including Mount Pisgah Cem, White Cem, and Wilson Cem, which serve as key landmarks for local genealogy and land-use history. The presence of the Crowley Ridge Cutoff indicates significant hydraulic engineering in the region's drainage system. This survey also captures the boundary between Craighead Co and Poinsett Co, illustrating how these historical county lines intersect with a grid of country roads like Harrisburg Rd and Stadium Blvd.
