About this map

The White River winds through this section of Independence County, carving out the expansive Dennison Bottoms and creating distinct landforms like Wright Island and Wright Cutoff. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from these low-lying river bottoms to prominent elevations such as Eagle Mountain, Pine Mountain, and Neal Mountain. The community of Salado serves as a central point for a network of creeks including Salado Creek and Caneu Creek, while the settlement of Rosie is anchored by the Rosie Post Office.

Family history and local heritage are well-preserved across the quadrangle, with several established burial grounds including Sulphur Rock Cemetery, Egner Cemetery, Macedonia Cemetery, and Wyatt Cemetery. The map documents the residential development around Southside and Sulphur Rock during the early 21st century, illustrating how modern road networks like Rutherford Dr and Weaver Hill Rd navigate the hilly terrain between Big Creek and Old River.
