The Vermilion River carves a winding path through this Acadiana landscape, separating the residential growth of Milton and Youngsville from the agricultural expanses to the west. This 2018 survey captures a region defined by its coulees and drainage networks, including Anselm Goulee, LeBlanc Ditch, and Long Pointe Coulee, which traditionally dictated land use and settlement patterns. Genealogy researchers will find several family-named burial sites across the parishes, such as Broussard Cem, Picard Cem, Gallet Cem, and Bodoin Cem. Significant local landmarks are also documented, ranging from the Woodlawn Bridge crossing the river to the Greene Air Park located south of Milton. The map provides a clear view of the parish line between Lafayette and Vermilion Parishes, showing how contemporary road networks like Maurice Ave and Milton Rd have integrated these historically distinct communities.
