About this map

The community of Mountain Springs serves as a central landmark in this 1990s Arkansas landscape, where the intersection of several county lines—Faulkner, White, Lonoke, and Pulaski—creates a complex jurisdictional borderland. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent ridges and hills, notably Lewisburg Ridge and Haymes Hill, which separate the various drainage basins of Magness Creek and Fourmile Creek.

Genealogists and local researchers will find a high density of rural burial sites and congregations, including Shirley Cem and the Dunkard Brethren Cem. The area around El Paso and the Sixteenth Section Ch shows a established rural settlement pattern of family farms and small churches. A Landing Strip and a Radio Tower indicate modern utility additions to a landscape otherwise dominated by creek branches like Jacksnipe Branch and Sawmill Branch.
