About this map

Troy and Mendenhall anchor this rural landscape along the border of Nevada and Ouachita counties, where a complex network of waterways defines the local geography. The terrain is intricately carved by several significant drainages, including Lewis Bayou, Cypress Cr, and Hale Cr, which feed into the larger river systems of the region. This survey captures a pocket of South Arkansas where community life is centered around family and faith, evidenced by numerous longstanding landmarks such as Adams Chapel Cem and the Hickory Ridge Cem north of the main settlements.

Local transportation is dominated by a grid of rural routes like Washington Post Rd and Woodlawn Rd, which connect the scattered homesteads and small hamlets. Significant natural features like Pace Lake and the winding course of Panther Cr remain prominent fixtures of the landscape. For those interested in the genealogy and local history of the region, the placement of sites like Zion Hill Cem and Round Oak Cem provides essential spatial context for historical rural congregations.
