About this map

McCormick and its surrounding Poinsett County acreage are defined by a rigid grid of drainage canals and agricultural roads that reflect the intensive land management of the Arkansas Delta. This 2011 survey captures the spatial relationship between legacy settlements like Old Weona and the more modern Weona Junction. The landscape is etched with utilitarian names that hint at the region's history of large-scale farming and timber clearing, such as Plantation Ln, Cotton Rd, and Walnut Grove Ln.

Water management is the central theme of this terrain, anchored by the massive Oak Donnick Floodway in the southeast. A network of ditches, including Red Ditch Ln and its various branches, crisscrosses the township-and-range blocks, facilitating the drainage required for the area's row-crop economy. Other small hubs like Judd Hill and Payneway serve as local anchors in this highly organized rural environment.
