The Little Black River winds through the lowlands of the Missouri-Arkansas border, defining a landscape shaped by an extensive network of drainage projects. This 2021 survey illustrates how the terrain between Naylor and Neelyville has been engineered for agricultural use, evidenced by named channels like Taft Ditch, Harviell Ditch, and Neeleyville Ditch. These waterways cut across a series of subtle elevations, including Harris Ridge and Sharecropper Ridge, which historically provided high ground for settlements and burials in this floodplain environment.
