2015 Map of Ada

About this map

Dubberly and Ada anchor the southern landscape of this Webster Parish quadrangle, where the terrain is defined by the winding course of Black Lake Bayou. This watercourse serves as a natural boundary between Webster and Claiborne Parishes, and later between Webster and Bienville Parishes to the south. The area's settlement pattern is reflected in its numerous family and community burial grounds, including Burns Cem and Gilgal Cem. At Nine Forks, a convergence of local routes like Middle Rd and Fuller Cemetery Rd indicates an established network of rural connectivity. The presence of features such as Black Bottom Br and Fellowship Br suggests a landscape shaped by drainage into the larger bayou system, supporting a community centered around agriculture and timber in the early twenty-first century.
