2015 Map of Fortune Fork

USGS Topo · Published 2015

About this map

Roundaway Bayou and a complex network of waterways define this corner of Madison Parish, where the settlement of Fortune Fork sits amidst a landscape shaped by ancient river paths. The alluvial terrain is heavily marked by oxbow remnants and drainage channels, including Horseshoe Lake and Brushy Bayou. Local history and genealogy are anchored by rural landmarks such as Mount Celia Cem near the northern boundary and Montrose Cem further south. The map documents the persistent layout of section lines and rural transport, with routes like Old US-65 and Sharky Rd cutting through the lowlands. This detailed record of the mid-2010s shows a region where human activity is closely tied to the natural hydrology of Gar Bayou and Alligator Bayou.
