2012 Map of Louise

About this map

The town of Louise serves as the focal point of this Delta landscape, where a grid of rural roads and water management channels defines the region's agricultural character. This survey illustrates a complex hydrological system designed for the flat Mississippi floodplain, dominated by the massive Will M. Whittington Auxiliary Channel and its associated levees, including Whittington E Levee Rd. Historically significant sites for genealogists are scattered across the terrain, including Huddleston Cem, Balup Cem, and Goshen Cem. The map also documents smaller named settlements such as Sleepy Hollow, Anchorage, and Potosi, which sit alongside natural water features like Silver Cr and Goshen Bayou. The land is segmented by an extensive network of farm-to-market roads like Good Luck Rd and Reids Rd, reflecting the late 20th-century development of the Humphreys County countryside.
