About this map

Roe sits at the southern edge of this Monroe County landscape, where the agricultural plains meet the intricate wetlands of the White River valley. The eastern border is defined by the winding course of the White River, which creates distinctive landforms like Hilderbrand Bend and Wolf Bend. This area is heavily managed for water, evidenced by a network of engineered features including Peckerwood Lake, Stroh Reservoir, and Newkirks Reservoir Number 1. These bodies of water, many held by structures such as the Peckerwood Lake Dam, suggest a landscape deeply tied to irrigation and drainage.

Transport and commerce are anchored by the Clarendon Municipal Airport and a grid of rural routes like Monroe County Line Rd and Peppers Lake Rd. The map also captures several smaller localities such as Vaby and Peppers Landing, providing a detailed view of the settlement patterns between La Grue Bayou and Roc Roe Bayou. This 2011 survey reflects the enduring intersection of Arkansas delta farming and the natural hydrology of the river bottomlands.
