About this map

The Comite River meanders south through this rural landscape along the border of East Feliciana and East Baton Rouge parishes, defining the geography of small agricultural communities in the mid-1960s. The settlement of Slaughter occupies the northwest, while smaller hamlets like Fred, Milldale, and Deerford are scattered across a network of country roads including Lemon Road and Port Hudson-Pride Road. This survey provides a significant record for genealogists, as it identifies numerous family and community landmarks such as Overton Cem, Douglass Cem, and Strangers Home Cem. The social fabric of the era is evident in the high density of rural houses of worship, ranging from New Philadelphia Ch and Philadelphia Ch in the north to Galilee Ch and Cypress Grove Ch further south. Education in the eastern section centers on the Chaneyville Sch, located near several tributaries like Sandy Creek and Schley Creek.
