2024 Map of Doddridge NW

About this map

Mercer Bayou winds through the lowlands of Miller County, defining a landscape of complex waterways and small rural settlements. This 2024 survey captures the intricate hydrology where the Sulphur River and Caney Creek meet a series of backwater features like Little Pond and Mercer Lake. The mapping reflects a region shaped by its proximity to the Texas and Louisiana borders, evidenced by the corridor of the Kenneth Jenkins Expy and the dispersed communities of Jonesville, Fort Lynn, and Black Diamond. Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved on this sheet, including Antioch Cem in the north and the J M B Jones Cem near Jonesville. Local transit is represented by a network of county roads such as Moonshine Rd and River Road Trl, providing access to the riverbottoms and the small settlement of Boggy.
