1983 Map of Milton

About this map

The Vermilion River snakes southward through this landscape, carving a boundary between Lafayette Parish and Vermilion Parish. During the early 1980s, the area around Milton and Youngsville maintained a rural character defined by extensive coulees and small, family-associated landmarks. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of private burial grounds, including Broussard Cem, Picard Cem, Gallet Cem, and Bodoin Cem, which are scattered among the agricultural fields and drainage networks. The map details a complex system of water management, from natural flows like Anselm Coulee and Bayou Parc Perdu to man-made infrastructure such as Le Blanc Ditch. While Maurice and New Flanders mark emerging residential clusters, much of the terrain remains focused on the river-bottom landscape and the winding course of Darby Coulee.
