1994 Map of Gordon

About this map

Gordon and the surrounding piney lowlands of the Beauregard Parish and Calcasieu Parish border are documented here following 1994 revisions. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including Beckwith Creek, Tiger Glade, and Cowpen Creek, which wind through the terrain toward the southern Little River. Human activity is marked by the presence of a central Oil and Gas Field and a significant Lookout Tower near the northern boundary. Genealogists will find value in the specific locations of Gillie Cem and Alston Cem, while recreational history is noted at the Boy Scout Camp situated along the creek bends. Industrial infrastructure, including a Pumping Station and the Hickory Branch Canal, reflects the managed water and resource extraction of the late 20th century.
