About this map

The Saline River and its complex network of sloughs and creeks dominate this pocket of Southeast Arkansas, where the Bradley Co Drew Co line follows the meandering watercourse. In the early 1970s, the rural landscape was defined by small settlements like Wilmar, Green Hill, and New Hope, many situated along the rail corridor of the Missouri Pacific or near the high ground of the creek divides. The area is dense with community landmarks that provide significant value for family historians, including numerous burial grounds such as Turner Hills Cem, Corinth-O'Neil Cem, and Old Saline Cem. Cultural life is further anchored by local congregations at Shiloh Ch and New Hope Ch. The terrain transitions from the low, wet bottoms of Gin House Slough to the upland drainage of Tenmile Creek, reflecting a traditional Southern landscape of river-bottom timber and scattered agricultural clearings.
