About this map

Woodland and Felixville anchor this detailed study of northeastern East Feliciana Parish, where the Louisiana state line meets Amite County, Mississippi. The landscape is defined by a dense network of small drainages, including Beaver Creek and Sandy Cr, that carve through the timbered uplands. The distribution of small family and community burial grounds, such as Kent Cem, Gerald Cem, and Doughty Cem, suggests a long-established pattern of rural settlement.

Modern infrastructure follows historic corridors, with Liberty Rd and Perkins Rd connecting the crossroads of Felps and Teddy. The southern portion of the map is marked by low-lying drainages like Stone Bayou and Poverty Bayou, illustrating the transition from the rolling hills of the north to the more saturated bottomlands. This contemporary survey preserves the names of small communities and local landmarks that maintain the heritage of this border region.
