2020 Map of Vernon

About this map

Vernon and Kelleys anchor this landscape along the border of Lincoln and Jackson Parishes, characterized by a complex network of creeks and small family cemeteries. The terrain is defined by drainages like Castor Cr, S Choudrant Cr, and Sandy Cr that wind through the low hills, including Buckenham Hill. This area is a significant focal point for genealogical research, containing numerous burial sites such as the Vernon Baptist Church Cem and its adjacent number 2 site, as well as the Mount Zion / Saint Rest Cem and Ebenezer Cem. The rural road system, including named routes like Dorsey Shop Rd and Vernon-Eros Rd, connects these small communities and historic church sites, reflecting the long-standing agricultural and timber-based settlement patterns of North Louisiana.
