2020 Map of Clark Hollow

About this map

The borderlands of Beauregard Parish and Calcasieu Parish are defined by a intricate system of drainage gullies and creeks, most notably Indian Cr, Bear Head Cr, and the central drainage of Clark Hollow. This 2020 survey reveals a landscape largely shaped by rural infrastructure and water management, where numerous "gullies"—including Mustang Gully, White Oak Gully, and Sally Gully—feed into larger marsh systems. The distribution of family-named roads such as Edward Pickering Rd, Howell Pinder Rd, and Jack Coleman Rd suggests a community organized around established landholdings and timber or oil interests. Genealogists will find the locations of Hyatt Cem near the northern boundary and Stanley Cem further south to be vital points of reference. The presence of Sun Oil Rd and Mule Pond underscores the dual nature of this Louisiana landscape as both a resource extraction zone and a complex wetland environment.
