About this map

Mount Pleasant and Cushman serve as the primary hubs in this section of north-central Arkansas, where the landscape is defined by the complex drainage of W Lafferty Cr and E Lafferty Cr. The topography is a series of narrow hollows and prominent ridges such as Pine Mtn and Bat Knob Hill, creating a fractured settlement pattern of small communities like Lafferty, Gid, and Crocker.

Genealogists will find a significant concentration of family and community burial grounds throughout these hills, including No Bottom Cem, Chinquapin Cem, and Winkle Cem. The southern edge of the map shows the transition into Independence County, featuring the area around Clubhouse Spring and the headwaters of Blowing Cave Cr. The road network, including Ar-58 and numerous local routes like Collistown Rd, follows the natural contours of the stream valleys and ridge lines.
