2018 Map of Grosse Tete

About this map

Bayou Grosse Tete anchors this Iberville Parish landscape, tracing a winding course that has long dictated the placement of settlements and transport corridors in this portion of Louisiana. The community of Rosedale and the village of Grosse Tete follow the bayou's banks, connected by Rosedale Rd and Sidney Rd. The map reveals a high density of small cemeteries and parish churches, such as Mount Gideon Baptist Cem and Rose Hill Cem, which serve as vital markers for genealogical research. Surrounding these clustered settlements, the terrain is defined by a sophisticated network of drainage and transport infrastructure, including Trinity Canal, King Ditch, and Catfish Canal, highlighting the intersection of natural waterways and human engineering required to manage the low-lying wetlands of the Atchafalaya Basin periphery.
