2015 Map of Vernon

About this map

The northern edge of Jackson Parish and the southern border of Lincoln Parish define this section of north-central Louisiana, where small rural communities are connected by a network of local roads and parish routes. The settlement of Vernon serves as a primary hub, while other established locales like Ebenzer and Oak Ridge reflect the long-standing agricultural and residential patterns of the area. Family and community heritage is evidenced by several burial grounds, including Ebenezer Cem, Vernon Cem, and Mount Zion Cem. The landscape is etched by a dense drainage system comprising South Choudrant Creek, Castor Creek, and numerous smaller branches such as Washington Branch and McDowell Branch. Higher ground is marked by features like Buckenham Hill, while the region's rural character is preserved through named thoroughfares such as Olive Grove Road and Styles Ranch Road.
