2015 Map of Saint Francisville

About this map

Saint Francisville stands as the primary hub on this survey, situated above the sweeping Bayou Sara Bend where the waters meet the Mississippi River. The landscape transitions from the river bottomlands to the elevated terrain of Cane Ridge and Peach Ridge to the west. This area in West Feliciana Parish is marked by a concentration of significant cultural and genealogical sites, including Grace Cem, Hebrew Rest Cem, and Our Lady of Mount Carmel Cem. The interior is defined by an intricate network of waterways such as Blackfork Bayou and Little Bayou Sara, which carve through the wooded hills. Small rural settlements like Solitude, Bains, and Hardwood are connected by local routes like Oakhill Rd and Afton Villa Rd. Further west, the Blackfork Hiking Trail and Big Cyprus Trail indicate a landscape used for recreation and conservation amidst the complex hydrology of Blackfork Lake and Timberwheel Lakes.
