1972 Map of Buckeye

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Buckeye and Deville anchor the high ground in this 1970s survey of the Rapides Parish and Avoyelles Parish border. The landscape is a complex network of prairie and bottomland, dominated by the sprawling Big Island terrain and numerous watercourses like Big Creek and Horsepen creek. The presence of an Oil Field and a Drill Hole in the northeast corner points to the region's mid-century petroleum industry, while the density of family-named cemeteries such as Bradford Cem, Paul Cem, and Slocum Cem provides a deep record of rural settlement patterns.
