2015 Map of Roseland

About this map

The Tangipahoa River carves a path through the eastern edge of this landscape, defining the character of north-central Louisiana. This survey details the transition from the rolling woodlands and creek drainages of St. Helena Parish in the west to the more densely settled corridor of Tangipahoa Parish in the east. The primary north-south transit spine links the towns of Tangipahoa, Fluker, Arcola, and Roseland, where local roads like Gutteau Mill Rd suggest the region's agricultural and industrial ties. Numerous family and community burial grounds, including the Arcola-Roseland Cem and Watson Cem, are scattered across the quadrangle, serving as vital landmarks for genealogical research. The intricate network of small waterways, such as Natalbany Cr and W Natalbany Cr, dictates the placement of rural homesteads and farms throughout this region.
