About this map

Clark Hollow defines the center of this rural landscape straddling the line between Beauregard and Calcasieu Parishes. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of watercourses, including White Oak Gully, Sweet Gum Gully, and Bear Head Cr, which drainage toward the extensive Green Island Marsh in the south. This environment, dominated by gullies and marshland, influenced the placement of local roads and family-named landmarks that have persisted through generations.

Genealogists and local historians can locate family burial sites at Hyatt Cem near the northern boundary and Stanley Cem further south. The road network is largely named for local families and early industry, such as Edward Pickering Rd, Paul Johnson Rd, and Sun Oil Rd. These routes connect small clearings and homesteads through a landscape that remains primarily agricultural and industrial, as evidenced by the namesake Mule Pond and the proximity of the Green Island Marsh Cr.
