USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
Marksville and the surrounding Avoyelles Prairie dominate this early 1960s landscape, where the meandering Red River and Little River define the local geography. The settlement pattern is deeply tied to the high ground above the wetlands, with towns like Mansura and Hessmer situated along the rail corridors of the Kansas City Southern and Texas and Pacific. This era captures a transition in transport, showing the intricate network of parish roads connecting rural landmarks such as St Marys Ch and St Pauls Ch.
