2015 Map of Holden

About this map

The Tickfaw River snakes through this portion of Livingston Parish, defining the drainage patterns of numerous tributaries like Crooked John Br and Bear Cr. This 2015 survey reveals a landscape deeply connected to its local history and family lineages, evidenced by the high density of small cemeteries scattered across the townships. Settlements such as Magnolia and Starns serve as local hubs, while Livingston and Doyle occupy the southern corridor along Florida Blvd. Genealogical researchers will find a wealth of named landmarks, including Stafford Cem, Causey Cem, and Mack Cem. The map illustrates the transition from the structured street grid of the larger towns to the rural networks of named routes like Sidney Woods Rd and Hinson Rd. In the eastern section, Starns Bridge remains a key crossing point, reflecting the historic reliance on the river as both a barrier and a resource.
