About this map

The settlement of Quitman serves as the focal point for this 2014 survey of Cleburne County, where the topography shifts from the agricultural lowlands of Cadron Creek to the elevated ridges of Pryor Mtn and White Oak Mtn. This landscape is defined by its intricate drainage patterns, notably the N Fork Cadron Creek and Flat Rock Creek, which carve through the northern hills. The edge of Greers Ferry Lake is visible in the northeast corner, reflecting the modern hydrology of the region.

Researchers will find a network of established local routes such as Edgemont Rd and Quitman Rd connecting rural hubs like Pearson and Crossroads. Several historic burial grounds, including Palestine Cemetery and Aldridge Cemetery, are documented here, providing critical geographic context for genealogists tracing families in the area. The map illustrates a transitional terrain where naming conventions like Sulphur Springs Hollow and Sweet Suck Hollow suggest the deep-rooted local history of these Arkansas hills.
