About this map

The Arkansas Louisiana state line bisects this landscape where Morehouse Parish meets Ashley County. The terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways, most notably the wide, marshy corridor of Chemin-A-Haut Bayou and Chemin-A-Haut Cr which meander through the center of the sheet. Small settlements like Berlin and Gulledge are connected by a grid of rural roads such as Ashley 23 and Ashley 710, reflecting the agricultural and timber-based layout of the borderlands.

Genealogists and local researchers will find the Extra Cem located near the eastern edge, while the southern portion of the map shows the proximity of Rawls and Geddie. Water bodies such as Maxwell Cr, White Oak Cr, and Hurricane Cr dominate the low-lying topography, illustrating the drainage patterns that have shaped land use and property boundaries since the earliest land grants in this region of the Deep South.
