2015 Map of Burr Ferry

About this map

The settlement of Burr Ferry and the surrounding piney woods of Vernon Parish are defined by an intricate network of waterways draining toward the Sabine River basin. In this 2015 update, the landscape is characterized by its numerous named branches and creeks, such as Pearl Cr, Forker Cr, and Wolf Cr, which carve through the terrain between established timber and family roads. To the northeast, the expansion of Anacoco Lake creates a distinct shoreline featuring Rabbit Island and Bayou Anacoco. For those researching local lineages, the map identifies key burial sites including Burr Ferry Cem and Stevens Cem, alongside a complex system of parish roads that preserve family names like Wilburn Jeane Rd and Garrett Jeane Rd, reflecting the deep-rooted land ownership patterns of this Louisiana borderland.
