2020 Map of Koran

About this map

Koran serves as a central settlement in this portion of Bossier Parish, where the geography is defined by the winding course of Clarke Bayou and the expansive waters of Lake Bistineau. The area is notably dense with historical markers, particularly small community burial grounds and houses of worship. Genealogists will find a wealth of records through the distribution of sites like Bethlehem Church Cem, Camp Zion Cem, and Saint Pauls Cem. These landmarks, often situated along rural routes like Koran Doyline Rd and Camp Joy Rd, reflect the long-standing family foundations of the region. Along the shoreline, landforms such as Fairview Point and Adam Point jut into the lake, while Plum Orchard Island and Peggy Island sit within the channel, illustrating the complex transition from parish lowlands to the lake’s edge near Pine Bluff.
