About this map

Bayou Bartholomew snakes through the northeast corner of this Morehouse Parish landscape, defining a terrain shaped by winding waterways and agricultural tracts. Small communities and historical clusters like Beekman, Stevenson, and Vaughn are connected by a network of rural routes such as Sulphur Springs Rd and Tram Rd. The central southern portion is dominated by the sprawling waters of Bussy Brake, while Squealer Brake and Ward Brake highlight the low-lying, hydrologically complex nature of the region.

The western edge of the map features the protected wetlands of the Upper Ouachita National Wildlife Refuge, where Mollicy Bayou and Hog Wallow Slough drain toward the river. For genealogists and local historians, the Stevenson Cem and family-named landmarks like Robinson and Humphreys provide specific points of interest. The presence of numerous trails, including Judge Barham Trl and Wes Anthony Trl, suggests a landscape used for both timber transit and local access.
