1938 Map of Chemard Lake
USGS Topo · Published 1938About this map
The Red River floodplain and its intricate backwater systems define this 1938 survey of the borderlands between De Soto Parish and Natchitoches Parish. A complex network of bayous and brakes, including Dolet Brake and Louies Brake, illustrates the hydrological character of the region before modern drainage and levee controls fully altered the landscape. Smaller settlements and rural hubs such as Rambin Store and Ajax provide focal points for researchers tracing early twentieth-century community life in northern Louisiana.
