About this map

Princedale and the surrounding Arkansas lowlands are defined by a complex network of waterways and sloughs, including Copeland Slough and Wolf Slough, which branch away from the Saint Francis Bay drainage. The landscape transitions from the wet lowlands in the east to slightly higher ground in the west, where family-named roads like Akin Cemetery Rd and Whiskey Store Rd hint at the local history of the region.

Small settlements such as River Front and Pleasant Hill are positioned near these shifting watercourses, connected by a network of county roads that navigate the marshes. For genealogists, the map identifies specific burial sites like Akins Cem and Harefarm Cem, providing exact locations for ancestral research in this corner of Cross County. The presence of Robinson Lake and various sloughs illustrates the drainage patterns typical of the St. Francis River basin before modern land management completely altered the alluvial plain.
