2024 Map of Pine Grove

About this map

Grangeville and Pine Grove anchor this 2024 landscape in St. Helena Parish, where the Amite River carves a winding path through the western timberlands and wetlands. The geography of the area is defined by its deep genealogical roots, visible through a high density of family and community burial grounds such as Naul Cem, Thomas Cem, and Sand Hill Cem. The road network, including State Rte 449 and Greenwell Springs Rd, connects small settlements across several parish lines, with the map recording the meeting point of St. Helena, East Feliciana, East Baton Rouge, and Livingston. Waterways like Pigeon Creek and Beaver Dam Creek drain the low-lying terrain, creating a complex hydrographic system that has likely influenced local property boundaries and rural development for generations. This survey provides a contemporary view of the intersection between historic family estates and the natural drainage basins of the Florida Parishes.
