1951 Map of Homan

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

The Red River meanders through this portion of Miller and Little River counties, defining a landscape of oxbow lakes and alluvial bottomlands at the start of the 1950s. The serpentine river course is flanked by numerous water bodies including Old River Lake, Bear Lake, and Cut-off Lake, evidence of the river's historical shifts before modern levee systems were fully established. Human activity is clustered near the Missouri Pacific railroad line, which anchors the settlements of Homan and Clear Lake Junction. Local genealogy is well-preserved through landmarks like Paup Cem, while the spiritual life of the community is anchored by Lone Star Ch and Swan Lake Ch. In the northern portion of the map, the Bois d'Arc Bayou and Gillespie Ditch reveal the extensive efforts to manage the wet, low-lying terrain for agriculture and habitation.
