About this map

Bayou Macon carves a sinuous path through this Northeast Louisiana landscape, serving as a natural boundary between West Carroll, Richland, East Carroll, and Madison parishes. The settlement of Epps sits at a crossroads in the northwest, characterized by a structured grid of local streets like Woodlawn St and Locust St. Agricultural patterns dominate the region, with drainage provided by an extensive network of waterways including Alligator Bayou, Cypress Bayou, and Joes Bayou.

Smaller communities and rural landmarks anchor the survey area, from the Monticello area and the Monticello Flying Service landing strip in the east to the Palestine Cem near Mitchiner and Fairview Cem at Warden. Many roads, such as Old Delhi Rd and Poverty Point Pkwy, trace the historical movement of goods and people across these fertile lowlands, offering a clear view of the region's rural development and parochial divisions.
