2011 Map of Jericho

About this map

Wapanocca Lake and the wetlands of the Mississippi River floodplain define the landscape of eastern Arkansas in this 2011 survey. The region is characterized by small, dispersed settlements like Clarkedale and Jericho, connected by a network of rural roads that navigate the low-lying terrain near Fifteenmile Bayou. Agricultural land use is evident in the presence of named rises such as Pecan Ridge and large islands within the river system like Island Forty and Beef Island. For those researching local heritage, the map identifies several rural burial grounds, including New Mount Zion Cemetery, Sunrise Cemetery, and Saint Marks Cemetery. The presence of the Turrell Flying Service Airport and the crossroads at James Mill underscore the intersection of aviation and traditional farming infrastructure in Crittenden County.
