2011 Map of Senath

About this map

The Saint Francis River and its complex of drainage canals and sloughs dominate this landscape along the Missouri-Arkansas border. This low-lying agricultural region is defined by its water management, featuring Big Slough Ditch, Grassy Slough, and Honey Cypress Ditch Number 34. Named "islands" such as Blue Cane Island, Allen Island, and Two Mile Island indicate slightly higher ground within this alluvial plain. Small settlements and industry are scattered throughout, including Senath at the southern edge and White Oak to the west. Local genealogy is supported by the presence of Leonard Cemetery, McGrew Cemetery, and Lanier Cemetery, while the area's agricultural history is evidenced by Mitchell Mill and Johnson Mill. The map also captures specialized transport features like the Skelton Landing Strip and the Aviation Landing Strip, serving the local farming and aviation needs of Dunklin County.
