2017 Map of Leslie

About this map

Leslie sits at the heart of this landscape along the Middle Fork Little Red River, serving as a central hub for the surrounding Ozark foothills. The map documents a network of rural communities including Wileys Cove, Elberta, and Rumley, the latter positioned near the southern boundary line of Searcy Co and Van Buren Co. This 2017 survey reveals a terrain defined by high points like Chicken Wilson Knob and Henderson Point, interspersed with numerous hollows such as Blacksnake Hollow and Green Griffin Hollow. Genealogists will find a wealth of local burial sites, from the large Leslie Cem to the more secluded Sulphur Springs Cem and Pine Grove Cem. The drainage patterns are meticulously recorded, showing how Peyton Cr and Cove Cr navigate the complex topography of Brushy Mtn and Blue Mtn.
