About this map

The town of Haynesville serves as the primary hub in this mid-1980s landscape, situated where the Louisiana state line meets the Webster Parish and Claiborne Parish boundary. The area is defined by a dense network of timberlands and small rural communities like Millerton, Norton Corner, and Dykesville. Drainage across this rolling piney-woods terrain is managed by numerous watercourses, including Indian Creek and Black Bayou, which flow through the forested lowlands between the scattered upland settlements.

Industrial and transport infrastructure is represented by a Gravel Pit and the Haynesville Airport, while the Radio Tower (KDIV) stands as a landmark for the local community. For genealogists and local historians, the presence of several unlabeled Cemeteries and small residential clusters provides a detailed look at the rural settlement patterns along the upper reaches of M Fk Bayou D'Arbonne and Cow Creek.
