2024 Map of Weyanoke

About this map

Little Bayou Sara and Bayou Sara dominate the drainage patterns of this corner of West Feliciana Parish, where the land transitions through a series of small named settlements and family holdings. The historic Tunica Trce cuts diagonally across the landscape, serving as a primary corridor connecting the communities of Retreat, Turnbull, Weyanoke, and Rosebank. This rural topography is defined by its deep creek systems, including Sandy Creek, Baker Creek, and Bell Creek, which feed into the larger bayou network. Genealogists will find value in the clear placement of Evans Cem near the northern boundary and Greenwood Cem further south. The settlement pattern of small hubs like Plettenberg and Hollywood suggests a landscape rooted in long-standing agricultural and residential partitions, while the presence of Flower Hill and several branch roads illustrates the local connectivity of this riverside region.
