About this map

Ivan sits at the heart of this Southern Arkansas landscape, where the irregular boundary between Dallas and Cleveland counties winds through a dense network of creek drainages. The area is defined by its complex hydrology, with the waters of Moro Cr, Hurricane Cr, and Beech Cr carving through the terrain. This map reveals a high concentration of family-named cemeteries and rural roads that point to the deep-rooted community structure of the region.

Local history is preserved in the location of several burial grounds, including Garner Cem, Tolson Cem, and Dixon Cem, which are scattered among timberlands and creek bottoms. The road names themselves offer a glimpse into the local character, from the intriguing Whiskey Still Rd to the utilitarian Nova Jean Rd. The settlement pattern follows these winding routes, clustered around the central point of Ivan while spreading toward the county line.
