2011 Map of Lincoln

About this map

Lincoln serves as the central hub of this Northwest Arkansas landscape, where the Ozark terrain transitions from the heights of Sugartree Mountain into the drainage basins of Ballard Creek and Baron Fork. The settlement pattern reflects a deeply rooted rural community, anchored by numerous family and community burial grounds such as Sugar Hill Cemetery, White Rock Cemetery, and Bethesda Cemetery. Small historic centers like Canehill, Summers, and Dutch Mills are scattered across the quadrangle, each connected by a network of local roads including Canehill Rd and N Jackson Hwy. Water management is prominent in the eastern portion of the map, featuring Rodgers Lake and Cantrell Lake, both identified with their respective dams. The presence of both the Summers Post Office and Canehill Post Office underscores the persistence of these individual community identities within Washington County even into the 21st century.
