About this map

Marion anchors the southwestern corner of this Union Parish survey, serving as a hub for a network of rural roads that stretch across the lowland terrain of northern Louisiana. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Cecil Cr and Frank Luper Cr, which drain into the broader wetlands of the Ouachita River basin. Small rural settlements like Sadie, Litroe, and Dean dot the countryside, connected by thoroughfares such as State Rte 826 and numerous parish roads.

Genealogical interest is centered on several historic burial grounds, including Saint Pauls Cem, Dean Cem, and Reppond Cem, which are tucked away near the small communities of Bemis and Loco. The presence of the Mason Dixon Line Rd in the north and the cluster of family-named roads like Watson James Rd and Leon Ferguson Ln reflect the long-standing community ties and land divisions characteristic of this region near the Arkansas border.
