Sheppard Point and La Grue Springs anchor this portion of Arkansas County, where the low-lying terrain is defined by an intricate network of slow-moving water. The area is dominated by the meandering course of La Grue Bayou, which feeds into a complex of oxbows and wetlands including Moon Lakes, Wright Lake, and Eagle Nest Lake. Small rural communities such as Deluce and Weber are connected by local routes like Ar-17, while family-named landmarks like Nichols Cem and Tipsy Cem provide essential data points for those tracing local lineages. The map reveals the interplay between agriculture and the natural hydrology of the White River basin, seen in the transition from ridges like Briar Ridge to bottomland features such as Hickory Slough and Wolf Bayou. This geography reflects a landscape shaped by periodic flooding and the shifting paths of the bayous.
