2014 Map of Nathan

About this map

Nathan and Highland anchor a landscape defined by the convergence of Pike, Howard, and Hempstead counties in southwest Arkansas. The terrain is deeply carved by water, with the Muddy Fork and Brushy Cr flowing through a network of small settlements including Briar, Perkins, and Corinth. The map reveals a mix of agricultural and industrial history, from the family-named rural routes like Kizzia Farm Rd and JZ Hale Rd to the industrial presence of the Briar Plant reservoir system. Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved here, such as Mt Pleasant Cem and Corinth Cem. Aviation infrastructure is represented by the Howard County Airport in the south, while the name Mine Rd suggests the local extraction history that shaped the development of these rural communities alongside the banks of the Mine Cr and N Fork Ozan Cr.
