About this map

Bayou Bartholomew winds through this delta landscape where the borders of Drew, Chicot, and Ashley counties converge. The topography is defined by its complex drainage network, featuring Big Bayou, Crooked Bayou, and Lighterwood Bayou alongside the distinct elevation of Silver Mound. This area is marked by a history of small agricultural communities and family-named routes, such as C C Gibson Rd and Hudspeth Rd.

The settlement of Jerome sits at a junction of rail and road, anchored by Louisiana Blvd and Colony Rd. To the north, the smaller hamlets of Hudspeth and Deep Elm represent the dispersed nature of local commerce and residency. For those tracing family histories in the region, the map documents several important local landmarks including the Silver Mound Cem and Pleasant Grove Cem, providing a clear view of the rural infrastructure as it existed in 2020.
