About this map

The intersection of three parishes—Webster, Claiborne, and Bienville—shapes this mid-1980s landscape of northwestern Louisiana. Small settlements such as Ada, Dubberly, and Nine Forks anchor a region defined by its complex drainage network and early industrial activity. The terrain is deeply carved by waterways including Black Lake Bayou, Bear Creek, and Brushy Creek, which feed into the larger Black Bayou system. Resource extraction is evident through labeled Gravel Pits and a Drill Hole, indicating the area's continued connection to natural resource production. This provisional survey provides a clear look at the rural infrastructure of the era, from the scattered Cemeteries to the Sewage Disposal Ponds near Ada, documenting the functional layout of these small communities before further modern expansion.
