About this map

The boundary line between Allen and Evangeline parishes bisects this landscape of timber tracks and riparian lowlands. Grounded by the small community of Beaver and the nearby Cypress Creek Settlement, the area reflects an economy transitioning away from its heavy logging roots. The map is webbed with several Old Logging Railroads and an Old Logging Railroad Grade, indicating where timber was once moved through the dense woods toward regional mills. Central to the local community is the Beaver School, located south of where the State Highway No 482 and State Highway No 25 corridors provide modern access. Water features define the terrain, from the slow-moving Bayou Marsh and Bryans Lake to named drainages like Earnest Gully and Beasty Branch.
