About this map

The Vermilion River and Vermilion Bayou anchor this urban and industrial landscape of the early 1980s, documenting the dense growth of Lafayette and the neighboring town of Scott. The map reveals a robust educational and religious infrastructure, including the University of Southwestern Louisiana and numerous parochial institutions like Immaculate Heart of Mary Sch and Our Lady of Fatima Sch. For genealogists, the sheet is exceptionally detailed, locating small family and parish burial grounds such as Simon Cem, Cobb Cem, and Holy Sepulchre Cem.
