Pitreville and Richard anchor this rural landscape where the boundaries of Acadia Parish and St. Landry Parish meet. The terrain is defined by a dense network of coulees and gullies, most notably the winding course of Bayou Mallet and the smaller drainages of Blaise Lejeune Gully and Hazelwood Gully. This 2015 record shows a well-established agricultural grid, partitioned by named family roads such as Laundrenau Rd, Guillory Rd, and Sonnier Rd. For genealogists, the map is particularly valuable for its documentation of numerous small burial sites, including Mowata Cem, Fruge Cem, and Carron Cem. The presence of small settlements like Prudhomme and Hundley suggests a long-standing pattern of dispersed community centers connected by state routes like La-367.
