About this map

Paris and Subiaco anchor this Logan County landscape where the valley floor meets the northern slopes of Short Mountain. The terrain is defined by the drainage of Sixmile Creek and Short-Mountain Creek, creating fertile stretches like McLean Bottom near the Arkansas River to the north. Industry and infrastructure are evident in the Paris Gas Field and the Paris Municipal Airport, while the presence of both the Subiaco Reservoir and Paris Reservoir highlights the managed water resources essential to these communities.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites across the quadrangle, from the large Oakwood Cemetery in town to smaller family or community plots such as Baxley Cemetery, Hixson Cemetery, and Raney Cemetery. The map also records rural settlements and place names like Cotton Town, Gray Rock, and Greasy Valley, reflecting a long history of agricultural and local development along historic routes like Old Military Rd.
