About this map

Leola serves as the central hub of this survey area, situated at the boundary between Grant and Dallas Counties. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Saline River, which feeds into a complex network of wetlands and tributaries such as Moores Slough and Beaverdam Slough. Small rural settlements like Dogwood, Thiel, and Carver are scattered throughout the northern sections, while the southern reaches near the county line include Cooney and Ivy.

Genealogists will find several family-named burial grounds, including Taylor Cem, Moores Cem, and Crowder Cem, which provide specific points of interest for local heritage research. The terrain is a mixture of low-lying creek beds like Brush Cr and Lost Cr and numerous managed forest roads, reflecting the region's historical reliance on timber and river navigation. Notable water features like Tolar Lake and Cox Creek Lake highlight the importance of local hydrology in shaping the settlement patterns of these Arkansas communities.
