2018 Map of Whiteville

About this map

Bayou Boeuf and Bayou Cocodrie define the agricultural lowlands of the Louisiana prairie near the intersection of three parishes. This 2018 survey documents a landscape where traditional bayou-side settlements like Whiteville and Barbreck remain connected by historical routes such as La 182 and La 29. The map records a dense network of local roads including Cotton Patch Rd and Cane Brake, reflecting a long-standing land-use pattern of large holdings interspersed with small rural communities. For genealogists, the Fontenot Cem provides a specific point of interest in the western portion of the quadrangle. Significant water features like Cazan Lake, Indian Lake, and Coulee Teal are mapped alongside modern infrastructure such as the Whiteville Airport. Small settlements like Gold Dust, Augusta, and Saint Louis further illustrate the dispersed residential and agricultural character of St. Landry and Evangeline Parishes.
