About this map

The Louisiana State University Experimental Station anchors the northern landscape of this Acadia Parish region, reflecting the area's deep ties to agricultural research during the early 1980s. The cities of Crowley and Rayne serve as the primary population centers, connected by the industrial corridor of the Southern Pacific railroad. The mapping reveals a complex network of water management essential to the local economy, including numerous siphons and flumes that crisscross the terrain between Bayou Blanc and the winding course of Bayou de Tortue. Genealogists and local historians can locate several burial grounds, such as Gossen Memorial Park Cem and Leger Cem, alongside community landmarks like Ebenezer Ch and the Crowley-Hains Landing Strip. The confluence of Acadia Parish, Lafayette Parish, and Vermilion Parish at the southern edge highlights the administrative and geographical intersections of these prairie-and-bayou districts.
