About this map

Mansfield serves as the focal point of this 2012 survey, surrounded by established residential neighborhoods and industrial energy developments. The landscape is defined by its residential expansion into areas like De Soto Heights, Hickory Hills Estates, and Highland Park, while the local economy is punctuated by the Mansfield Gas Field and Buffalo Bayou Gas Field.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several burial grounds, including Saint Elizabeth Cem, Creswell Cem, and Allen Cem. The hydrology is dominated by a network of bayous such as Bayou Na Bonchasse and Siphorien Bayou, which dictate the drainage patterns through rural settlements like Slone and New Rockdale. This map illustrates the transition from the structured street grid of the town center to the sprawling suburban and rural tracts of DeSoto Parish.
