Paragould serves as the focal point of this Greene County landscape, where the rectilinear street grid of the city center meets an extensive network of drainage ditches and creeks. The civic heart of the area is anchored by the Greene County Courthouse, while surrounding rural communities such as Cotton Belt, Morning Star, and Oak Grove Heights illustrate the dispersed settlement pattern characteristic of the Arkansas Delta. The terrain is defined by engineered waterways like the Eightmile Ditch, Village Greek Ditch, and Johnson Creek Ditch, which manage the low-lying lands around Big Island. These features, along with the numerous named country roads and the Cotton Belt Rd, trace the agricultural development and infrastructure required to navigate and cultivate this alluvial plain. Genealogists will find value in the precise locations of the Coffman Cem and Memorial Gardens Cem.
