2015 Map of Louisiana

About this map

The Mississippi River defines the eastern boundary of this Missouri landscape, where the city of Louisiana sits as a primary riverfront hub. The terrain moves from the low-lying alluvial plains of Plum Point Slough and Sand Slough to the prominent heights of Clinton Hill and Buffalo Knob. For genealogists, the map is particularly rich in burial sites, documenting Riverview Cemetery overlooking the water, as well as the Gates of Peace Cemetery, Bethany Cemetery, and Noix Creek Cemetery. Transportation patterns are anchored by the river crossing at the Champ Clark Bridge and the small aviation facility at Mark Twain Air Park. The map also captures several distinct river islands, such as Angle Island and Blackburn Island, which sit near the confluence with the Salt River.
