About this map

Bayou de Loutre and its winding tributaries define this stretch of Union Parish during the late 1980s. The landscape is primarily rural, characterized by the dense drainage networks of Little Bayou de Loutre, Lion Lick Creek, and Trough Bayou. Small residential clusters and agricultural clearings are centered around the settlements of Truxno, Laran, and Conway.

Evidence of local history and infrastructure is visible through several marked Cem sites and a prominent Pipeline corridor that cuts across the northern terrain. The presence of the Meridian boundary and various named watercourses like Beach Bayou and Horse Creek illustrate the complex interplay between the natural swampy hydrology of northern Louisiana and the established land partitions of the era.
