2011 Map of Lake Village

About this map

Lake Chicot dominates the eastern landscape of Chicot County, its distinctive oxbow curve shaping the development of Lake Village and surrounding settlements. This 2011 survey captures the area's delta character, where a complex network of waterways including Bayou Macon, Little Lake Bayou, and Paps Slough weave through agricultural land defined by long-established section lines. The map is particularly dense with genealogical sites, recording numerous burial grounds like Mount Zion Cemetery and Liberty Cemetery. Small communities such as Chanticleer, Fairview, and Jennie are linked by a grid of rural roads, including 16th Section Rd and Roy Broach Rd. Engineered water controls like the Lake Chicot Dam North and Whiskey Chute Dam highlight the ongoing management of the region's prominent aquatic features.
