2020 Map of Huttig

About this map

Huttig anchors this survey of the Arkansas-Louisiana borderlands, where the Union Parish line meets Union County. The landscape is defined by the complex hydrology of the Ouachita River basin, featuring numerous sloughs and bends such as Henderson Bend and Horseshoe Slough. Industry and infrastructure are evident at Twenty Acre Millpond and the network of local roads like Dollar Junction Rd and New Lock 6 Rd that connect smaller settlements including Felsenthal and Old Lapile. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet is particularly valuable for its clear marking of family-linked landmarks and burial sites, including Old Lapile Cem, Harper Springs Cem, and Simms Cem. The presence of Dollar Junction and various railroad-aligned streets in Felsenthal points to the area's history as a timber and transit hub near South Lapile Creek.
