Cultural reference
The area of Haynesville is referenced in country music performer Dick Curless's song "A Tombstone Every Mile". The song refers to the "Haynesville Woods", an area with a stretch of road noted for many motor vehicle accidents. Truck drivers used to ship potatoes to market in Boston and a dangerous hairpin turn in the route through Haynesville was the inspiration for the song.
