About this map

Willisville and Rosston anchor this section of Nevada County, where the local economy is deeply tied to the extraction of natural resources. The landscape is marked by the Irma Oil Field and the West Willisville Oil Field, indicating the ongoing importance of petroleum in this part of Arkansas. Beyond the industrial sites, the area is defined by a network of creeks, including Cypress Cr and Brushy Cr, which thread through the rural terrain.

Genealogists will find several burial sites noted across the quadrangle, such as Holly Springs Cem, Saint Peters Cem, and the Union Cem near Bodcaw. Small settlements like Irma and Cale are connected by a grid of county roads and highway corridors like Us-371 and Us-278, which intersect at Rosston near Rosston Lake. The map provides a clear picture of how family settlements and industry have integrated with the drainage basins of the West Gulf Coastal Plain.
