About this map

The meandering Bogue Chitto defines the drainage and topography of this region along the border of Washington Parish and St Tammany Parish. The settlement at Enon serves as a local hub, characterized by essential community landmarks including the Enon Lookout Tower and nearby Magee Cem. This 1980s landscape is deeply marked by family-named landmarks and rural infrastructure, from the Corkern Landing Strip and Corkern Lake to numerous private burial grounds such as Cordelia Cem and Mizell Cem.

A complex network of small waterways, including Thigpen Creek and Isabel Bayou, weaves through the timbered terrain, supporting small communities like Price and Hurd. Cultural life is rooted in the dispersed country churches, such as True Light Ch and Sharps Chapel, which provide clear reference points for genealogists tracing local family histories in the Piney Woods region of southeastern Louisiana.
