About this map

The small settlement of Gordon serves as a central point in this 1930s landscape, situated at the junction of the New Orleans Texas and Mexico railroad and State Highway No 7. The geography reveals a region in transition from intensive timber extraction to agriculture, evidenced by numerous remnants of industrial infrastructure like the Old Logging Railroad and various Old Logging Grades that crisscross the drainage basins of Beckwith and Hickory creek. To the south, an Irrigation Canal (Abandoned) marks the boundary near the Beauregard Parish and Calcasieu Parish line, suggesting early 20th-century water management efforts. Rural community life is anchored by the Pilgrims Rest Ch, while the meandering paths of Little and Jackson Gully define the local topography alongside the Missouri Pacific rail line.
