About this map

The St Francis River and Tyronza River define the intricate drainage patterns of this Delta landscape along the border of Poinsett and Crittenden counties. In the mid-1970s, the region was characterized by an extensive network of man-made waterways like Ditch No 41 and Ditch No 61, which supported the intensive agricultural use of the fertile bottomlands. Small rural settlements and gathering points such as Joyland, Black Oak, and Galilee are scattered across the terrain, often anchored by local landmarks like New Hope Ch or Mt Olive. The presence of several Fish Farm operations and numerous landing strips reflects a specialized rural economy reliant on both the water and aerial access for crop management. Local history is preserved in the location of several small burial grounds, including Tyronza Cem and King Solomon Cem, which sit near the winding banks of the Tyronza R and its associated Cutoff.
