The Broad River and Green River converge near the border of Rutherford and Polk counties, carving a landscape defined by rolling hills and small creek valleys. This rural territory is anchored by the community of Pea Ridge and the settlement at Beulah. Local history and genealogy are deeply rooted in the area's country churches, such as Byars Baptist Church and Pleasant Hill Church, each with its own graveyard for researchers to trace family lineages. The presence of Fox Haven Plantation Airport near the Broad River indicates the modernization of these traditional agricultural lands. Small waterways like Wheat Cr and Mountain Creek weave through the terrain, illustrating the historical dependence on natural drainage for local homesteads. This map provides a look at the region’s development, where modern routes like Us 74 now bypass the older crossroads of the foothills.
