Bayou Terrebonne and Bayou Grand Caillou anchor a complex network of waterways in this southern Terrebonne Parish landscape as it appeared in the late 1930s. The settlement pattern follows the narrow natural levees, where family names and local history are preserved in sites like Theriot P O, Sarah Plantation, and St Michaels Plantation. The transition from land to water is fluid, defined by vast marshes and interior water bodies like Lake Boudreaux and Lake Tambour.
