2011 Map of Prescott West

About this map

The city of Prescott anchors the eastern edge of this Arkansas landscape, where a transition occurs between the urban street grid and the rural creek systems of the west. Several small communities, including Arcadia, Midway, and Deanyville, define the settlement patterns of this era, connected by a network of county roads. These rural areas are deeply carved by a series of south-flowing waterways, such as Vickers Creek, Steel Creek, and Onion Creek. The presence of numerous family and community burial grounds, including Smyrna Cemetery and Artesian Cemetery, provides a clear view of the area's genealogical history. Man-made water features such as Hale Lake and Bee Bee Lake, both with identified dams, indicate local water management and recreation sites developed along the drainages of Garland Creek and Pine Creek during this period.
