1967 Map of Cocodrie Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Cocodrie Lake and its intricate network of landings and bays define the northern portion of this landscape, situated along the parish line between Rapides Parish and Evangeline Parish. The 1960s economy is reflected in the active Sand and Gravel Pits concentrated near Turkey Creek and the heavy timber and wetland environment surrounding Butler Brake. Transportation is dominated by the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad, which parallels the highway through the small communities of Clearwater, Nobrac, and Meridian. Several historical landings, including Blue Lake Landing, Clarks Landing, and Clubhouse Landing, indicate the lake's importance for local access. Cultural landmarks such as the Meridian Lookout Tower and Oak Grove Church, along with family-associated sites like Duprissey Cemetery and McCormack Cemetery, provide essential detail for local genealogical and historical research.
