About this map

Boeuf River winds through this mid-1930s landscape where the borders of Morehouse, West Carroll, and Richland Parishes meet. The river's serpentine course creates distinct landforms like Old River Island and Whitney Island, while a series of cut-offs—including Big Lafourche Cut-off and Cut-off No. 1—reveal efforts to manage the complex hydraulics of the basin. The settlement of Point Jefferson serves as a local focal point, surrounded by a network of rural education sites such as Pt Jefferson Sch and Alexandria Sch.
