About this map

Blackfish Bayou winds through the heart of this Arkansas delta landscape, defining the local drainage and topography between Crittenden and the St. Francis County line. The settlement pattern is characterized by small rural communities like Jennette, Dixie, and Shearerville, often situated near significant water bodies such as Holden Lake or along the established corridors of the local road network. The area’s history is preserved in several rural burial grounds, including Pilgrim Rest Cem and Macedonia Cem, which serve as important markers for genealogists tracing local families. Transportation infrastructure ranges from the small Stokes Airport in the north to the more modern thoroughfares crossing the southern portion of the quadrangle near Shell Lake. This agricultural terrain shows the persistent influence of the bayou system on land use and settlement placement across this part of the Mississippi Alluvial Plain.
