2017 Map of Ivan

About this map

The settlement of Ivan anchors this section of south-central Arkansas, situated near the boundary line of Dallas and Cleveland Counties. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Moro Cr, which serves as a natural dividing line between the two counties and is fed by numerous tributaries such as Guice Cr and Beech Cr. The topography consists of low-lying creek bottoms and subtle ridges where early settlement patterns are visible through a network of local roads with evocative names like Whiskey Still Rd and Hastings Camp Rd. Genealogists will find a high concentration of family burial grounds scattered across the terrain, including Garner Cem, Tolson Cem, and Dixon Cem. The southern edge of the map is dominated by the floodplains of Hurricane Cr, showing the rural, timbered character of the region in the early 21st century.
