About this map

The Norfork National Fish Hatchery and the massive Norfork Dam anchor the northern landscape of this Arkansas Ozarks survey, where the Norfork River flows south from Norfork Lake. The terrain is defined by a series of deep hollows and creek systems, including Moccasin Cr and Calico Cr, which carve through the high ground of the Ozark National Forest. Small settlements such as Norfork, Jordan, and Iuka are connected by a network of county roads, while the town of Calico Rock serves as a regional hub near the Calico Rock-Izard County Airport.

Genealogists will find numerous family-named landmarks and rural burial grounds, such as Galatia Cem, Wayland Arbor Cem, and Staggs Cem. The topographic detail highlights prominent natural features like Naked Joe Knob and Schinette Hollow, reflecting the traditional settlement patterns of Izard, Baxter, and Stone counties. The southern edge of the map follows the winding path of the White River, a vital geographic marker for the region.
