About this map

Wittsburg and Levesque occupy a landscape defined by the shifting course of the Saint-Francis River and its accompanying flood control infrastructure. The river's meanders create distinct features like Wittsburg Island, Johnson Bend, and Mussel Bar, while the Saint Francis Floodway and St Francis Levee Rd reveal the managed nature of this alluvial terrain. To the west, the topography rises away from the bottomlands, marked by a network of creeks such as Cane Creek and Crow Creek.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by Saint Marks Cemetery and Walters Cemetery. Recreational and hydrologic development is evident through numerous reservoirs including Lake Austell and Lake Dunn, each controlled by their respective dams. The map also traces the road network of Cross County, from established routes like Bus 64 to more remote tracks like Turkey Roost Drain and Copeland Slough.
