About this map

Sulphur City and the surrounding Washington County landscape are defined by the winding course of the Middle Fork White River and its numerous tributaries. This area, situated southeast of Fayetteville, maintains a rural character with small, long-established communities like Black Oak, Hicks, Arnett, and Wyola dotting the terrain. The map is a vital resource for local history and genealogy, noting several community landmarks such as Kings Cem, Salem Cem, and Reese Cem.

The topography is characterized by distinctive highlands and hollows, including Snyder Mtn and Lingebaugh Mtn, which frame the agricultural and residential corridors. Evidence of regional infrastructure and land use is visible in features like the Black Oak Quarry Rd and the network of waterways including Greasy Cr, Trace Cr, and John Turner Fork. Small family-named landmarks, such as Parricks Ridge and Lutman Hollow, reflect the deep-rooted settlement patterns of the Ozark foothills.
