About this map

Lewisville serves as a focal point of this Lafayette County landscape, anchored by the Lafayette County Courthouse and a grid of streets including Chestnut St and Battle St. The settlement pattern follows the local geography of the Red River Valley, with the town positioned near the confluence of Battle Cr and other small tributaries. To the southeast, the terrain transitions into the wetlands and meandering paths of Bodcau Creek, which dominates the hydrology of the eastern half of the map.

Further south, the community of Kress City and the historic Mars Hill Cem provide important touchstones for genealogists and local historians. The landscape is defined by its water systems, from the drainage of Field Bayou in the west to the numerous named branches like Tatum Br and Steel Cr. These watercourses historically dictated the placement of roads and early farmsteads in this southwestern Arkansas region.
