1983 Map of Oakley

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The low-lying bottomlands of Franklin and Tensas Parishes are defined by an intricate network of meandering waterways, most notably the winding course of Bayou Macon. This 1983 survey captures a landscape dominated by the alluvial hydrology of the Mississippi Delta region, where the Tensas River and Tensas Lake provide the primary natural structure for the area's geography. Smaller settlements like Oakley and Oak Bluff are situated amidst a maze of bayous, including Wolf Bayou and Otter Bayou, while the presence of the Kendrick Ferry Bridge over the Macon indicates the historical importance of river crossings in this rural drainage basin. The map serves as a vital record for genealogists tracking family ties to local landmarks such as the Pentecostal Ch or the various unnamed cemeteries found throughout the timbered glades and oxbow lakes like Moon Lake.
