About this map

The lowlands of north-central Louisiana meet the edge of Catahoula Lake in this detailed survey of the area around Nebo. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including Hemphill Creek and Horsepen Cr, which drain the varied terrain of Deville Hill and the many hollows like Carr Hollow and Mayhew Hollow. The presence of numerous petroleum-related labels, such as Oil Field Rd and D C Tank Battery Rd, indicates the area's ongoing connection to the regional energy industry.

Local history and genealogy are well-preserved through a high density of family and community burial grounds, ranging from Coon Cem and Hailey Cem in the north to Magnolia Cem and Norris Cem further south. The map documents the boundary between LaSalle Parish and Grant Parish near the settlement of Rogers, providing a precise record of land divisions and rural road networks including White Sulphur Springs Rd and Barge Landing Rd near Boggy Bend.
