About this map

Robert and the small community of Lorraine anchor this landscape along the lower reaches of the Tangipahoa River. The area is defined by a dense network of winding tributaries and wetlands, including Chappepeela Creek, Bedico Cr, and Washley Cr. This environment supports a mix of agriculture and specialized aviation, evidenced by the presence of the Shaw Crop Service Airport and Koenig Airpark.

Genealogists will find a significant concentration of family burial sites throughout the parish, such as Joiner Cem, Henen Cem, and the Wilson - Willie Cem. The map provides a look at the rural road network connecting these homesteads and landing strips, with routes like Zemurray Gardens Dr and Turnpike Rd cutting through the low-lying terrain near Uneedus. The hydrology of the region is intricate, with Chappepeela Lake and Mirror Lake situated among the drainage basins of the White Oak Br and Yellow Water Cr.
