About this map

Calico Rock and its surrounding rural townships are characterized by a network of creeks and elevated terrain in the Ozark foothills. The landscape is defined by its numerous small settlements, including Pineville, Dolph, and the curiously named Forty Four, which are connected by a web of county roads such as Jackson Port Rd E and Old Dolph Rd. The map illustrates a community rooted in local history, with several family-named landmarks like Hively Mtn and Dry Hollow shaping the local geography.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of rural burial grounds, including Spring Creek Cem, Cresswell Cem, and Potts Cem. These sites, often located near watercourses like Spring Cr or Piney Cr, mark the centers of early family homesteads. The varied terrain, moving between the heights of the mountains and the lowlands of Flat Rock Cr and Brushy Cr, suggests a land use pattern of dispersed farming and small-scale community centers typical of north-central Arkansas.
