2024 Map of Como

About this map

Bayou Macon and the Tensas River define the intricate hydrology of this Louisiana landscape, where winding waterways and swampy brakes separate small communities. The settlement of Como serves as a focal point near the northern border, while Griffin and Lorelein mark the slower-paced interior. This recent survey reflects the persistent agricultural and riparian character of the region, visible in the dense network of local roads like Rushing Rd and Beeler Lake Rd that navigate between water bodies. Genealogists will find notable value in the location of several family-linked burial sites, including State Place Cem, Ward Cem, and Eureka Cem. The transition from Franklin Parish into Tensas Parish is marked by the natural curve of the river, emphasizing how the floodplain has historically dictated political and physical boundaries in the delta.
