About this map

The Saline River meanders across the southern portion of this Grant County landscape, defining the border between Davis and Chester townships. The topography is a network of small drainages including Lost Creek, McGhee Creek, and Hurricane Creek, which carve through the timbered terrain. Small rural communities like Millerville and Cross Roads serve as the primary nodes of activity, connected by a developing road system that includes a Roadside Park and a prominent Lookout Tower for forest management.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of local burial grounds and places of worship, such as Shiloh Church, Shiloh Cemetery, Bethel Cemetery, and Newhope Cemetery. The map also captures the early industrial footprint of the region with numerous Gravel Pits scattered near the road networks. The intricate boundary lines for Calvert and Madison townships provide essential data for tracing land ownership and family history in this mid-century Arkansas river valley.
