2020 Map of Roe

About this map

Roe sits at the center of a complex network of waterways and agricultural land in Monroe County, defining a landscape shaped by the White River and its numerous oxbows. The terrain is characterized by intricate drainage systems, including La Grue Bayou and Roc Roe Bayou, which weave through the lowlands alongside larger bodies of water like Peckerwood Lake. These water features, paired with managed sites such as Newkirks Reservoir Number 1, illustrate the region's long-standing relationship with water management for farming. Genealogists and local historians can locate the Pleasant Home Cem and the river-bend landmark of Peppers Eddy in the northern portion of the quadrangle. The presence of the Clarendon Municipal Airport and a grid of rural roads like Co Rd 214 and Monroe Co Line Rd highlight the area's continued role as a connected rural hub between the bayous and the river.
