About this map

Hibank Oil Field dominates the northern landscape of this survey, which straddles the state line between Arkansas and Louisiana. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Bayou de Loutre and its various tributaries, including Hibank Creek, Bear Creek, and Mill Creek. These waterways dictate the local geography, creating a network of marshy bottoms and low ridges where rural life is anchored by small crossroads communities and family churches.

Settlements like Lockhart and Pleasant Grove serve as the primary hubs in this timbered and industrial region. For genealogists and local historians, the map identifies critical spiritual and memorial sites such as Calvary Ch, Olive Branch Ch, and Mt Zion Ch, alongside several burial grounds like Hillsboro Cem and Bethlehem Cem. The infrastructure of the petroleum industry is also evident, most notably at the Substation-Pumping Sta in the northwest corner.
