Pelican and Oxford serve as the primary nodes of settlement in this part of DeSoto Parish, Louisiana. The landscape is characterized by a network of local roads such as Mustin Rd and Jefferson Ln that connect rural residences and farmland. To the northeast, the topography rises into the Dolette Hills, a distinct upland area that contrasts with the flatter sections of the quadrangle. The 2015 survey reveals a pattern of modern land use where older thoroughfares like La-483 and La-513 intersect with smaller named lanes including Nelson Ln. Other geographic markers like Grove Hill and San Patricio Rd help define the orientation of the region’s traditional homesteads and modern property divisions.
