2020 Map of Eunice North

About this map

Prairie Mamou defines the northern reaches of this coastal plain landscape, where the boundary between Evangeline Parish and St. Landry Parish cuts through an intricate network of drainage coulees and gully systems. The settlement of Eunice anchors the southern margin, while Mamou sits at the northern edge, connected by a dense grid of rural roads often named for local families. These family names are reflected in the numerous burial grounds scattered across the terrain, such as Fontenot Cem, Guillory Cem, and Miller Cem. The hydrography of the region is characterized by winding watercourses like Coulee Valentine and Fontenots Gully, alongside smaller features like Fred Bellow Lake. The map reveals a highly structured agricultural landscape where traditional parish lines and modern township-range divisions intersect.
