1982 Map of Swartz
USGS Topo · Published 1983About this map
Wham Brake and the expansive Russell Sage State Wildlife Management Area dominate this northeast Louisiana landscape, illustrating a region defined by managed wetlands and industrial gas extraction. The presence of the Monroe Gas Field indicates the economic significance of the area, while local history is preserved in rural pockets like Puckettville and Patrick. Transportation follows a grid of family-named corridors such as Stubbs-Vinson Road and McGowan Road, alongside the Missouri Pacific railroad. Genealogists will find several notable landmarks, including Wham Cem and Spring Hill Cem, as well as community gathering points like Bethel Ch and Lochabor Ch. The terrain transitions from the low-lying Swan Lake Lakebed to the edges of Little Bayou Boeuf, reflecting the complex water management of the Ouachita and Morehouse Parish borderlands.
