2017 Map of Hempwallace

About this map

Ouachita National Forest blankets the northwestern corner of this landscape, where the terrain slopes down toward the waters of Mazarn Creek and Kelly Cr. This 2017 survey details the residential expansion south of Hot Springs, anchored by the settlement of Hempwallace and the lakeside development around Lake Hamilton. The transition from the forested ridges of Trap Mtn in the south to the established communities of Rockwell and Pleasant Hill illustrates the shift from timbered wilderness to suburban infill. Genealogists and local historians can pinpoint several significant burial grounds, including the Oak Grove Cem and the Aldrich Cem, which remain tucked among the winding county roads. The map also records the hydrological divide between the Rush Fork drainage and the larger Lake Hamilton basin, showing how the local road network, including Airport Rd, has shaped the growth of these Garland and Hot Spring County neighborhoods.
