Caddo Oil City and the northern reaches of Caddo Lake define this landscape in northwest Louisiana, where the history of early 20th-century petroleum production remains etched into the modern geography. The map documents the transition from the town of Vivian south through smaller communities like Superior and Shoreline, tracing the winding paths of Tiger Branch and Black Bayou. This area is particularly rich for family history research, featuring several local burial grounds including the Harrell - Harrison Cem, Raines Lease Cem, and the Hobbs Family Cem.
