About this map

The South Fork Little Red River carves a winding path through this portion of Van Buren County, anchoring a landscape where small settlements like Scotland and Walnut Grove are connected by a network of county roads. The terrain is defined by significant elevations such as Crowell Mountain and Culpepper Mountain, with numerous hollows like Wolf Pen Hollow and Copper Spring Hollow branching off the river valley.

Genealogists will find a wealth of family history preserved in the numerous burial grounds scattered throughout the quadrangle, including Evans Cemetery, Crowell Cemetery, and Foster Cemetery. The presence of the Scotland Post Office and the convergence of routes like Scotland Formosa Rd highlight the community's role as a local hub. From the heights of Crowell Pinnacle to the banks of Butter Creek, the map provides a clear view of the rural Arkansas highlands as they were in the early 21st century.
