About this map

Janes Cr and Martins Cr carve through this upland region along the border of Arkansas and Missouri, defining a landscape of narrow hollows and prominent ridges. The area is marked by a legacy of family settlement, evidenced by the numerous small burial grounds scattered throughout the terrain, including James Cem, Davis Cem, and Taylor Cem. The topography is exceptionally detailed, showing the intricate drainage patterns of Athye Br and Ellis Br as they feed into the larger creek systems.

Notable landmarks like Perry Bluff and Yates Ridge overlook the winding valleys, while the network of primitive roads, such as Nubbin Ridge Rd and Bellah Cemetary RD, follows the natural contours of the land. These paths connect isolated points like Stillhouse Spring and Persimmon Pond, reflecting a rural environment where water sources and high ground dictated the location of homesteads and early transportation routes through Randolph and Sharp Counties.
