2020 Map of Moss Bluff

About this map

Moss Bluff and the surrounding Calcasieu Parish landscape are defined by the intricate confluence of the Calcasieu River and the West Fork Calcasieu River. In this modern 2020 record, the northern reaches of Lake Charles extend toward Goosport, where the Kansas City Southern Ry cuts through a region thick with historical family and community markers. The map reveals a high density of local burial sites, including Birdsnest Cem, Bagdad Cem, and the Old Emanuel Church Cem, which serve as vital touchstones for genealogists studying the families of Ararat and Belfield. East of the river, a complex network of bays such as Burnett Bay, Goss Bay, and Aligator Bay illustrates the hydrologic character of the Louisiana coast, while the presence of the Chloe Airport and numerous residential developments shows the continued growth of the area near Newton and Goss.
