About this map

Anacoco serves as the primary settlement hub in this rural stretch of western Louisiana, situated where local roads converge near the southern boundary of Sabine Parish and Vernon Parish. The landscape is dominated by the sprawling Peason Ridge Training Area and portions of Fort Polk, highlighting the long-standing military presence in the region. Numerous family-named cemeteries, including Union Grove Cem, McInnis Cem, and Mitchell Cem, are scattered throughout the wooded terrain, providing valuable touchpoints for genealogical research. The complex hydrology is defined by the winding paths of West Anacoco Creek and East Anacoco Creek, which are fed by dozens of smaller tributaries like Swinley Branch and Coon Branch. This contemporary survey illustrates the persistent rural character of the area, where timber and military training grounds coexist with small community landmarks and old parish roads.
