About this map

Cocodrie Lake and its surrounding wetlands define the southern reaches of this landscape, where the meandering course of Bayou Cocodrie meets Horse Shoe Island. This deltaic environment is heavily marked by its water-driven history, shown through a complex network of bayous including Madkin Bayou, Ross Bayou, and Float Bayou. Small settlements like Frogmore, Athlone, and Stacy are dispersed throughout the region, often tied to agricultural and plantation-related history as suggested by the Frogmore Plantation Rd.

Genealogists will find several burial sites including Athlone Cem, Mount Moriah Cem, and Warren Cem. The map reveals contemporary land use through several marked trails in the Tensas River National Wildlife Refuge vicinity, such as the Cross Bayou Unit ARV Trail and Brooks Brake Unit Handicap ATV Trail. The division between Catahoula Parish and Concordia Parish runs through the northwest corner, highlighting the administrative boundaries of these river-bound parishes.
