2020 Map of Pettus

About this map

Pettus serves as the central focal point of this agricultural landscape in Lonoke County, where a complex network of bayous and sloughs dictates the local topography. The meandering course of Bayou Meto and Bakers Bayou defines the drainage patterns across the terrain, accompanied by smaller water features like Brushy Slough and Caney Cr. The map reveals a rural settlement pattern deeply connected to family-named landmarks and long-established local routes such as Red Wine Rd, Bob Long Rd, and Tankersly Farm Rd. For those researching local family history, the map precisely locates Weedon Cem, Sullivan Cem, and Green Olive Cem, providing vital geographic context for ancestral sites. The road network, including Weeden Cemetary Rd and Billy Bryant Rd, illustrates the intersection of modern infrastructure with the historical agricultural divisions of the Arkansas delta.
