About this map

Princeton and Jacinto anchor the landscape of this Arkansas survey, situated amidst a complex network of waterways that define the local geography. The area is characterized by the convergence of several major tributaries, including the W Fork Tulip Cr and E Fork Tulip Cr, which feed into lower marshlands such as Hickory Flats Slough and Alsobrook Slough. This saturation of the landscape with slow-moving water and seasonal sloughs like Black Slough suggests a terrain that has historically shaped local land use and transportation routes.

Genealogists will find several family-named landmarks and burial sites, including Henderson Cem, Herring Cem, and Taylor Cem, located along the rural roads branching off Ar 9 Hwy. The presence of these cemeteries alongside established settlements and creeks such as White Oak Cr and Hall Cr provides a grounded record of the families who inhabited this portion of Dallas County during the early 21st century.
