1954 Map of Negreet

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Negreet and the surrounding piney woods of Sabine Parish appear here during a transformative era for western Louisiana. A significant portion of the landscape is defined by the Toledo Bend Reservoir, which flooded former bottomlands along Negreet Creek and its tributaries. While the western edge is dominated by this massive water project, the interior remains a network of rural communities such as Dess and Palo. Genealogists will find many local landmarks preserved, from Zion Hill Church to the Roberts Cemetery and Dess Cemetery. The map also delineates the extensive boundaries of the La Nana Grant, a reminder of the region's colonial land-tenure history that persisted alongside modern infrastructure like the Dess Fire Lookout Tower.
