1965 Map of Lake Mary

About this map

The Lake Mary (Old River Lake) oxbow dominates this Mississippi River landscape, reflecting the shifting path of the river along the border of Louisiana and Mississippi. The area is defined by a complex network of interior waterways like Blue Lake, Long Lake, and Horseshoe Lake, which carve through the lowlands between Artonish and the Homochitto River. Small community centers and rural infrastructure are visible throughout the quadrangle, including the Hollywood Sch and several family or community burial grounds such as Loch Leven Cem and Good Hope Cem. The local economy of the mid-1960s is evidenced by the Lake Mary Oil Field and scattered Oil Wells, while the presence of The Canal and Little Canal suggests a history of water management in the flood-prone timber and marsh lands near the Buffalo River.
