About this map

Bayou Nezpique and its branching tributaries define the drainage and settlement patterns along the border of Allen and Evangeline Parishes. This landscape is shaped by the legacy of the timber industry, marked by the extensive Old Logging Railroad Grade that winds through the northern sections. While the terrain is dominated by watercourses like West Fork and Caney Creek, human settlement is concentrated around small hubs and rural educational centers. Local genealogists can trace the early mid-century locations of the High Point Sch, John Reid Sch, and Johnson Cove Sch, which served the scattered residents of Bond and Hampton. The presence of State Highway No 22 and State Highway No 220 indicates the transitioning transportation network as roads began to follow the paths formerly dominated by logging rails.
