Questions

Common questions.

What was Turrell's economy built on?

Timber dominated early on, led by the Baker Lumber Company, which had around 400 workers at its peak and concluded operations in 1916. The cleared forest acreage was then used as farmland, as it is today.

What natural features are near Turrell?

Nearby creeks empty into the Tyronza River. Memphis businessmen bought the lands around Wapanocca Lake as hunting grounds in 1886, and the federal government's 1962 purchase of the club's land established the Wapanocca National Wildlife Refuge.

What was at the Turrell site before the town?

Native Americans once had an established village and built several mounds at what is now Turrell, most likely because of its proximity to nearby creeks.

Do sinkholes and flood zones affect homes in north and northeast Arkansas?

The Springfield Plateau is underlain by Boone Formation limestone where solution and collapse sinkholes are abundant, and the Salem Plateau has sinkholes in its dolostones. The Mississippi Alluvial Plain is the flattest part of the state with often poorly drained soils. Standard homeowners insurance does not cover flood, so buyers should check a property's FEMA flood zone.
