1982 Map of Downsville North

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Bayou D'Arbonne Lake dominates the northern horizon of this North Louisiana landscape, where the waters of Stowe Creek and Cypress Creek feed into the reservoir's expansive reach. Mapping the border between Union Parish and Lincoln Parish, the survey reveals a rural economy shaped by natural resource extraction and agriculture, evidenced by numerous Gas Wells and Drill Holes scattered across the wooded hills. The settlement of Downsville sits at the southern edge, serving as a hub for the surrounding countryside. Deeply rooted local history is preserved in the distribution of community landmarks, from the D'Arbonne Lookout Tower to several country congregations like Woodlawn Ch and Mt Nebo Ch. Genealogists will find particular value in the identification of family-named burial sites such as Feazel Cem and the Holmesville Ch Cem, which anchor the map to its long-standing residents.
