About this map

Bayou Teche defines the local geography as it winds past the established settlements of Arnaudville and Leonville. This corridor reveals a landscape where traditional bayou life meets modern utility, evidenced by the Arnaudville Oil and Gas Field and several small aviation sites such as the Tim Bullard Memorial Airport and Couvillion Airport. The map documents a dense network of family-named roads, including Devillier Rd and Lucien Richard Rd, which partition the surrounding agricultural land into traditional Louisiana parishes.

Smaller hamlets like Pecaniere, Pointe Claire, and Coteau Rodaire are situated among the intricate hydrology of Bayou Fuselier and Bayou Portage. Cultural landmarks, including the Ring Zion Cem, offer essential reference points for genealogists tracing ancestral roots in the Acadiana region. The transition from the open fields of Prairie Des Femmes to the wooded edges of the bayous underscores the enduring relationship between the community and the water.
