2012 Map of Lobdell

About this map

Allendale and Westover are central to this landscape in West Baton Rouge Parish, where historical plantation names and industrial infrastructure coexist. The map shows a region shaped by extractive industries and transportation, featuring the Lobdell Oil and Gas Field and the Port Allen Oil Field alongside the artificial course of the Port Allen Canal. Several family and community burial grounds, including Allendale Cem, Westover Cem, and the Greater Shiloh Missionary Cem, provide critical points of interest for genealogists tracing local lineage in these unincorporated communities. To the south, the settlement of Brusly sits near the Choctaw Basin Drainage Canal, illustrating the complex water management required in this low-lying territory. From the rural outposts of Morley and Lynch to the active waterways of Alligator BYU and Whisky Bay, the map documents a distinct Louisiana corridor defined by its agricultural roots and its 21st-century role in energy production.
