2020 Map of State Line

About this map

State Line sits at the northern edge of Washington Parish, where the local landscape is defined by an intricate network of creeks and small family burial grounds. The water system is particularly dense, with Pushepatapa Cr and its various forks flowing alongside Muster Ground Cr and Bogue Lusa Cr. These waterways historically shaped the settlement patterns and road networks of the area, as seen in the winding routes of Parish Rd 179 and Parish Rd 222. For genealogists, the map is a dense directory of local history, naming dozens of rural resting places such as Crains Creek Cem, Singley Cem, and the Bethel Assembly of God Cem. The distribution of these sites across the townships of t1s r12e and t1s r13e suggests a long-standing community structure centered around small, decentralized family plots and rural congregations.
