About this map

Arkansas River bends south through this central Arkansas landscape, defining the boundary between Faulkner and Pulaski counties. The town of Mayflower sits at the northern edge, bordered by the expansive waters of Lake Conway and Bell Slough. The terrain transitions from the low-lying wetlands of Grassy Lake and Tupelo Gum Pond to the elevated heights of Reynolds Mtn and Clifton Mtn.

Significant local landmarks such as Mayflower Cem, Pine Village Airport, and the Natural Steps geologic feature provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians. The map documents a corridor of development along the interstate and rail lines, connecting established communities like Maumelle, Morgan, and West Marche. From the river's Devils Bend to the quiet interior of Monnie Springs, the survey shows the modern footprint of these historic river-and-rail settlements.
