About this map

Catahoula Lake dominates the southeastern corner of this landscape, its waters meeting the terrain at Indian Bluff and Big Point. The settlement of Nebo serves as a local hub in the northeast, while the smaller community of Rogers sits to the southwest. The geography is defined by a dense network of drainage, including Kitterlin Cr, Hurricane Cr, and Hemphill Creek, which carve through the elevations of Deville Hill.

Genealogists will find a significant distribution of family-named burial sites across the township lines of LaSalle Parish, such as Magnolia Cem, Nebo Cem, and Thompson Cem. The infrastructure reflects a mix of traditional settlement and industrial activity, notably via Oil Field Rd and several petroleum-related access routes. From the wetlands of Boggy Bend to the higher ground of the northern reaches, the map documents a transition from lakefront marsh to wooded uplands.
