About this map

Poughkeepsie and the rural communities of Nelsonville and Calamine define the human landscape of Sharp County, Arkansas, along the winding course of the Strawberry River. This area is characterized by a dense network of family-named landmarks and historical sites, such as Spotts Cem, Marvin Cem, and James Spring Cem, which serve as vital points of reference for genealogists and local historians. The geography is structured by numerous waterways including North Big Creek, South Big Creek, and Hurricane Creek, which flow through the undulating terrain.

The distribution of small settlements and the naming of thoroughfares like Oak Dale School Rd and Lebanon Church Rd indicate the early 21st-century survival of institutional centers in this part of the Ozark foothills. From the northern bend of the river at Peebles Bluff Rd to the southern reach of Mill Creek, the map provides a comprehensive look at the intersection of natural drainage and rural infrastructure in the modern era.
