About this map

The Little Black River and Current River define the eastern edge of this late 1960s survey along the Arkansas-Missouri border. The settlement of Supply serves as a local hub, surrounded by a landscape of small churches and family burial grounds that reflect the rural character of Randolph County. Prominent landmarks like Grindstone Hill rise above the drainage networks of Glaze Creek and Winningham Creek, while the meandering river bottoms are dotted with oxbows such as McGuire Lake and Peoples Lake.

Genealogists will find a high density of rural institutions, including New Home Ch, Grand View Ch, and Elmont Ch. The map also meticulously records historical cemeteries like Ingram Cem and Legate Cem, providing essential coordinates for tracing early residents in the townships of Siloam, Richardson, and Carpenter. Local industry is noted by scattered Gravel Pits and the presence of the Main Ditch irrigation system in the southern reaches.
