About this map

Saline Bayou and its numerous tributaries, including Hurricane Cr and Edwards Mill Cr, carve a complex drainage pattern through this section of Bienville Parish. The town of Bienville serves as the primary local hub, with its street grid including Pine St and Maple St clearly defined. The landscape is a mix of small settlements and industrial activity, notably the Liberty Hill Gas Field in the eastern portion of the quadrangle.

For those tracing family history in north Louisiana, the map identifies several rural landmarks such as Taylor Cem and Liberty Hill Cem near the community of Liberty Hill. Smaller locales like Lucky, Blume, and Cox Crossing are connected by an extensive network of parish roads, reflecting the dispersed nature of the timber and energy-related economy during this period. The varied terrain is further detailed by named water features like Sixmile Cr and Pea Vine Cr.
