2018 Map of Bonita SW

About this map

Bayou Bonne Idee meanders through the heart of this Morehouse Parish landscape, defining the local topography and drainage patterns. The 2018 survey reveals a rural area predominantly shaped by its water systems, including the slow-moving reaches of Bayou Galion and Cypress Bayou. These waterways are flanked by numerous low-lying features such as The Swale and Little Brake, indicating the characteristic wetland ecology of northern Louisiana. Local history and family genealogy are grounded in markers like the Heart Cem and a network of parish roads that frequently bear the names of local residents, such as Louis White Rd, Clem Payne Rd, and Claude Deville Rd. The presence of Johnson School Rd and Baily Store Rd suggests the locations of former community centers that once served this agricultural region.
