2017 Map of Line

About this map

Bayou Bartholomew meanders through the eastern wetlands of this Arkansas landscape, defining the borderlands between Drew and Ashley counties. This 2017 survey reveals a rural territory characterized by dense hydrography and a network of county roads. The drainage pattern, featuring Wolf Creek and Stephens Creek, suggests the low-lying nature of the Delta region. Genealogists will find particular value in the documentation of several family and community burial sites, including the Old Troy and New Troy cemeteries. The presence of Townsend Lake and the Townsend Cemetery nearby indicates the long-standing influence of specific families on the local geography. Significant transportation routes like the Lower Gates Mainline and various numbered county roads, such as Co Rd 51 and Ashley Road 60, provide a framework for the agricultural and timber-related movement across the quadrangle.
