About this map

Marthaville and its surrounding countryside define this 1980s landscape along the border of Natchitoches and Sabine Parishes. The area is marked by a network of waterways including Brushy Creek and Whitlock Creek that feed into larger bayous like Bayou Dupont. Small settlements such as Thomas, Klondike, and Vista appear as distinct clusters of development within a predominantly rural and wooded environment.

Evidence of local industry and public space is captured through the presence of Clay Pits and the Rebel State Commemorative Area near the northern boundary. Transportation and utility infrastructure are visible in the form of the Hickory Grade Road, various pipelines, and a transmission line. For those researching family history, several unidentified Cem locations are noted across the quadrangle, particularly near the parish lines and the western edges of the map.
