About this map

Haley Creek and Chemin-A-Haut Creek wind through this corner of Ashley County, defining a landscape of low-lying wetlands and prairie. The small settlement of Wallace sits in the northwest, serving as a quiet anchor for a network of numbered country roads that crisscross the terrain. This area preserves several significant sites for genealogists, including New Texas Cemetery in the north and the centrally located Cleveland Cemetery.

The presence of Brushy Prairie suggests the persistence of original grasslands amidst the wooded creek bottoms of White Oak Creek and Beech Creek. Toward the east, the landscape features the Young Lake Dam and several other burial grounds such as Hogue Cemetery and Beech Creek Cemetery. The map captures a rural Arkansas landscape dominated by its drainage systems and long-established family cemeteries.
