The Red River meanders heavily through this portion of Hempstead County, creating a landscape defined by oxbow lakes and complex bayous. Near the northern bend of the river sits Fulton, a settlement situated at a historic river crossing point. The presence of Old Allens Ferry and the Fulton Cemetery point to the long-standing importance of this location for local transit and community life. The river’s shifting course is evident in the numerous water bodies that now sit isolated from the main channel, including Adams Cut-off Lake, Kuykendall Lake, and First Old River Lake.
