2015 Map of Calhoun

About this map

Calhoun and Forksville anchor the southern corridor of this landscape along the border of Ouachita and Union Parishes. The survey captures a transition from the structured academic grounds of the Louisiana Technical College-Delta-Ouachita Campus to the surrounding rural settlements of Eureka and Carlton. The area is characterized by a dense network of family-named roads, such as Lonnie Malone Rd and Wes Wilhite Rd, which reflect deep-seated local genealogies. Numerous burial sites including Roselawn Memorial Gardens and Butler Cem are scattered throughout, providing critical touchpoints for family history research. Significant waterways like Bayou Choudrant and N Cheniere Cr wind through the terrain, dictating the placement of early settlements and road crossings in this part of Northern Louisiana.
