About this map

Mulberry Creek and Valley Creek define the drainage of this Dallas County landscape, where small rural communities are connected by a network of county roads. The settlement at Jones remains a focal point, anchored by the Jones Post Office and its namesake Jones Cemetery. To the north, the terrain rises toward Vine Hill, while the southern reaches include the developed area of Valley Grande.

Genealogists can find significant local history in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, such as Mount Pleasant Cemetery, Welch Cemetery, and the Pea Ridge Cemetery located near Pea Ridge. Water management is prominent through several dams and reservoirs, including Valley Creek Lake at Camp Grist, and the private impoundments of Rex Waldrop Lake and Laurence Lake, reflecting the region's transition from traditional agriculture to recreation and timber management.
