1959 Map of Elizabeth

About this map

Elizabeth sits at the northern edge of this Allen Parish landscape, serving as a primary settlement hub along the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe RR. The surrounding terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the meandering Tenmile Creek and the confluence of Alligator Mill Creek and Black Creek. These waterways, along with features like Schoolhouse Branch and Little Mill Creek, suggest a landscape historically shaped by timber and water-driven industry. To the south, the presence of Turner Ch and the Hampton Memorial Cem provide important markers for genealogical research. The Turner Lookout Tower and a Gaging Sta further indicate the region's focus on land management and resource monitoring during the late 1950s.
