About this map

Batesville Regional Airport serves as a modern landmark in this section of Independence County, where the topography shifts from the White River lowlands into a series of named ridges and hollows. The landscape is defined by elevated features such as Jamestown Mtn and Strother Mtn, with local life concentrated in rural settlements like Desha, Locust Grove, and Jamestown.

Family history is preserved across numerous burial grounds, including Alderbrook Cem near Desha and Palestine Cem further south. The drainage patterns of Greenbrier Creek and Salado Cr illustrate the complex watershed that has long dictated the placement of roads and homesteads in this region. This modern survey provides a detailed look at the interface between established towns like Southside and the more secluded reaches of Crane Hollow.
