Montegut and Chauvin anchor this 2018 survey of the coastal marshlands in Terrebonne Parish, where the local economy and geography are defined by the winding paths of Bayou Terrebonne and Bayou Petit Caillou. The map details the linear settlement patterns typical of southern Louisiana, where homes and businesses hug the natural levees and roads like Montegut Rd and Little Caillou Rd. This layout is punctuated by family and community landmarks, including Sacred Heart Cem and Thibodaux Cem, reflecting the deep-rooted genealogy of the bayou communities.
