About this map

Kedron and the small siding of Rone are central points of interest in this survey of the Arkansas timberlands and creek bottoms. The landscape is heavily defined by the St Louis Southwestern railroad, which cuts a sharp diagonal path across the terrain, passing through the southeastern corner. This rail corridor influenced the location of rural infrastructure, including a Rest Area and various gravel extractions.

Genealogists will find a wealth of local markers, including Randolph Cem, Piney Grove Cem, and Macedonia Cem, alongside Mt Carmel Ch. These sites are linked by a complex network of waterways, including the winding Big Creek, Allgood Creek, and Derrieusseaux Creek, which drain the varied topography of Spring, Madison, and White Oak. The presence of Dunkeffie Lake near the eastern boundary further illustrates the importance of water resources in this part of Cleveland County.
