2012 Map of Shults

About this map

The Little River meanders across this McCurtain County landscape, defining the local geography between the small settlements of Redland and Shults. To the north, the terrain is partitioned by several major tributaries including Yashau Cr, Yanubbee Cr, and Terrapin Cr, creating a complex network of waterways and low-lying basins. Local history is anchored by the Hill Chapel community in the northwest and the Redland Cemetery further south, landmarks that serve as vital points of reference for genealogists and researchers of the area's rural development. The presence of Pine Lake and Deeberry Lake suggests a reliance on the river system for recreation and water management. This 2012 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey details the modern road network, including State Hwy 3 and Craig Rd, which connect these dispersed rural communities and family-named landmarks.
