2015 Map of Luna

About this map

Cypress and Luna sit within a landscape defined by the shifting waters of the Ouachita River and its intricate network of bayous and creeks. This 2015 study shows the rural character of the region as it transitions across the Ouachita Parish and Caldwell Parish line. The eastern edge is dominated by riverine features such as the Coco Bend and Cutoff Bayou, while the interior is crisscrossed by waterways like Prairion Bayou and Cypress Creek. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies several rural burying grounds including Pine Grove Cem, Saint Pauls Cem, and Furlow Cem. The road network, often bearing family names like Charles Rawls Rd and Ted Williamson Rd, reflects a pattern of long-standing land ownership and small-scale community hubs scattered throughout the piney lowlands.
