1959 Map of Buckeye

About this map

Catahoula Lake dominates the northern landscape of this late 1950s survey, marking a complex watery environment where the borders of LaSalle, Grant, and Rapides parishes meet. The area is characterized by an intricate network of waterways like Big Bayou and French Fork, which once supported the local river economy before the proliferation of the petroleum industry. Evidence of this shift is visible in the North Saline Lake Oil Field and scattered oil wells that punctuate the traditional agricultural prairie lands.
