About this map

Reeves and the nearby settlement of Bel serve as the primary focal points of this Allen Parish landscape, situated within a complex network of coastal plain drainage. The area is defined by its industrial reliance on subsurface resources, specifically the Mud Creek Oil Field and North Bell Oil Field, which are integrated into a grid of rural roads and timberlands. Local infrastructure is anchored by the Bel Lookout Tower and a local post office Po located near the intersection of Highway 190.

Water management and natural hydrology dominate the terrain, notably featuring the Bear Creek Watershed Number 1 and numerous named tributaries like Clear Cr and Cane Brake Cr. The map preserves the specific locations of family-named roads such as Charles Klein Rd and Bernard Fontenot Rd, offering clear evidence of the local landownership patterns and community structure in this part of Louisiana during the early 21st century.
