2012 Map of Westville

About this map

Westville serves as the focal point of this 2012 survey, situated near the intersection of the Oklahoma-Arkansas border defined by State Line Rd. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Baron Fork and its various tributaries, including Shell Br, Peavine Cr, and Evansville Cr. Several prominent elevations like Alberty Mtn and Snake Mtn break the terrain, while the Westville Reservoir sits just west of the town center. Local history is deeply etched into the land through numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Foreman Cem, Crittenden Cem, and Ganderville Cem, which are scattered throughout the rural sections near Baron, Peavine, and Piney. The map documents a classic Ozark foothills settlement pattern where small communities and homesteads are linked by a dense network of section-line roads and named routes like Ross Swimmer Rd and Hammer Hollow Rd.
