2015 Map of Jamestown

About this map

Castor and Jamestown anchor this Bienville Parish landscape, where the local road network follows the winding course of Black Lake Bayou and its numerous tributaries. In the mid-2010s, this area remained defined by its rural settlements and significant water features, including the prominent Kepler Creek Lake and Fourmile Bayou. The map captures a high degree of local detail for genealogists, showing names like Lawhon, Anderson, and Old Castor, alongside smaller drainages such as Wimberly Br and Evans Br. The transition from the established community at Castor to the outlying area of Old Castor suggests the shifting centers of local activity over time. Transportation is dominated by state routes like La-792 and a dense network of parish roads that navigate the low-lying wetlands and ridges of the North Louisiana terrain.
