2017 Map of Marvell

About this map

The agricultural landscape of Phillips County is defined by its drainage network and small-town grid in this 2017 survey. Marvell serves as the primary hub, where the intersection of Hickory Ridge Rd and Old Hwy 1 meets the local street plan including Carruth Ave and College. The surrounding acreage is heavily managed by water control features like Lateral Number 2 and natural waterways such as Little Cypress Creek, Crooked Cr, and Coffee Cr. These streams navigate a low-lying terrain often prone to saturation, as evidenced by the presence of Cypress Swamp. Numerous small burial grounds are scattered across the township lines, including Mount Mariah Cem, Schaffhauser Cem, and Lone Valley Cem, providing a detailed record of local family history and rural community placement. Aviation interest is noted at Gibbons Airport, situated south of the small settlement of Hicks.
