About this map

Pine Bluff anchors the northwestern corner of this study, where the urban grid gives way to the low-lying reaches of the Arkansas River and its complex drainage network. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Bayou Bartholomew, Deep Bayou, and Little Cypress Bayou, reflecting the alluvial character of Jefferson County. Small clusters of settlement like Fairfield, Glenlake, and Ladd are scattered across the flats, often oriented around the historical intersections of local roads and the natural levees of the waterways.

Genealogists and local historians can find several family and community burial sites, including Fairfield Cem, Atkins Cem, and Patterson Cem. The eastern portion of the map is dominated by the sprawling infrastructure of the Pine Bluff Regional Airport Grider Field, situated on the Alexander Flat. This 2020 record documents the modern boundaries and land use of the delta region, from the industrial edges of the city to the brakes and bayous of the rural southeast.
