About this map

The Kings River flows through this Ozark landscape, marking a central geography for the communities of Marble, Dean, and Metalton. The terrain is defined by a series of significant peaks and hollows, including Chinkapin Mtn, Walker Mtn, and Fultz Mtn, which separate the various drainage basins. For those tracing family histories, the map identifies several local burial grounds such as White Oak Cem, Dean Cem, and Mert Cem, often located near established road networks like Carroll 544 Rd and Co Rd 717.

Water sources are abundant throughout the region, with Dry Fork and Big Onion Cr carving out secondary valleys. Named hollows like Sugarcamp Hollow, Tarkiln Hollow, and Wagon Shed Hollow suggest historical land uses and traditional naming conventions rooted in the area's early settlement. The presence of Cave Spring further highlights the unique karst-influenced hydrography of the Madison and Carroll County borderlands.
