About this map

Salem sits at a focal point of North Arkansas's uplands, where the South Fork Spring River and numerous creek systems have carved a complex landscape of ridges and hollows. During the mid-century, this area of Fulton County maintained a dense network of rural infrastructure, including many small churches and schools such as Sturkie Ch and Crossroads Sch that served scattered farmsteads. The drainage patterns are particularly well-defined, showing the winding course of the Strawberry River and unique geological features like the Pinhook Bend.
