2015 Map of Foules

About this map

Tensas River landings and bayous define this landscape on the borders of Catahoula Parish and Tensas Parish. The terrain is characterized by a complex network of waterways, including Little Tiger Bayou, Steep Bayou, and the meandering Big Choctaw Bayou. The distribution of named landings such as Eltringham Landing, Copeland Landing, and Kirks Landing along the riverbanks highlights the area's enduring connection to waterborne transport and commerce. Small settlements and points of interest like Foules, Greenville, and Maitland serve as local hubs, while family and community landmarks such as Elder Shade Cem and Greenville Cem provide valuable touchpoints for genealogical research. The northern portion of Concordia Parish also appears, showing a geography shaped by seasonal water levels and agricultural drainage near Black Lake and Reed Lake.
