1947 Map of Fruge Lake
USGS Topo · Published 1947About this map
Nezpique Bayou meanders through the heart of this landscape, defining the boundary between Allen and Evangeline Parishes during the mid-1930s. The area is characterized by its intricate water network, featuring Fruge Lake and numerous bayous like Grand Louis Bayou and Duralde Bayou. Evidence of the region's timber history is visible in the Old Logging Railroad Grade, which cuts through the central sections, marking a transition from active industry to a rural agricultural and homesteading phase. Small communities and family-named locations such as Hampton and Veillon anchor the northern reaches. The social fabric of the era is preserved through the specific locations of rural schoolhouses, including La Fleur Sch, Veillon Sch, Valentine Sch, and Fruge Sch, which served the scattered families living along the bayou banks and newly established roads.
