About this map

The Arkansas-Louisiana state line bisects this landscape, marking the transition between Ashley County and Morehouse Parish. This territory is defined by a complex drainage network where Bayou Bartholomew winds through the southern reaches near the settlement of McGinty. The central terrain is dominated by an intricate system of wetlands and backwaters, including Ox-Bone Slough, Gaines Slough, and Flat Slough, which characterize the low-lying alluvial plains. Genealogical interests are well-served by several local burial sites, such as Poley Bridge Cem in the north and Bethel Cem to the south. The road network, including State Hwy 173 and numerous parish roads like Parish Rd 9956, provides a framework for understanding the rural settlement patterns and property divisions across the t19s r5w and t23n r8e townships.
