About this map

Peach Orchard and Brookings anchor this agricultural landscape along the winding corridor of the Black River and Little River. The area is characterized by an intricate drainage and flood control network, including the Petersburg Ditch, Kincaid Slough, and the Little River Cutoff. This survey highlights the intersection of rural life and river geography, featuring many family-named landmarks and local burial grounds like Nelson Cem, Allen Cem, and Hoisey Cem.

The presence of features such as Hubble Bridge, Roach Point, and Cow Ford Bend illustrates the importance of river crossings and navigation points in Clay County. While Us-67 and Ar-280 provide modern connectivity, the map preserves the names of smaller locales like Heelstring and agricultural clearings such as Gearharts Field, offering a detailed view of the region's mid-2010s rural development and topography.
