About this map

The Ozark plateau north of Calico Rock is defined by a dense network of creek drainages and small rural settlements. This 2014 survey captures the landscape around Pineville and Dolph, where the terrain rises toward Hively Mtn and drops into the deep incision of Dry Hollow. The mapping reveals a community structure tied to family-named roads and remote crossroads, such as Crossroads and Wideman, which serve as anchors for the surrounding agricultural tracts.

Tracing the waterways like Piney Cr and Nasty Cr reveals the topographic complexity of Izard County. Genealogists will find particular value in the clearly marked burial grounds that dot the hillsides, including Cresswell Cem, Potts Cem, and Spring Creek Cem. The road network, including Ar-223 and Ar-177, connects these small hamlets to the larger trade center of Calico Rock in the south, illustrating the enduring settlement patterns of the Arkansas hills.
