2012 Map of Bastrop

About this map

Bayou Bartholomew snakes through the heart of this Morehouse Parish landscape, defining the drainage patterns and historical settlement boundaries north of Bastrop. The 2012 geography is marked by a complex network of named roads like Long Lonesome Rd and Thorny Brake Rd, which lead to residential clusters such as Point Pleasant and Newlock. To the north, the massive reservoir of Bussy Brake dominates the terrain, while smaller water features like Tisdale Brake and Anderson Lake reflect the low-lying, wetland-rich nature of the region. Local history is anchored by several community landmarks, including Anderson Chapel and its associated Anderson Chapel Cem, alongside other burial sites such as Carter Cem and Bell Cem. These features, combined with the presence of Morehouse Memorial Park, illustrate a landscape where modern development and traditional rural markers coexist.
