2018 Map of Wisner

About this map

Wisner anchors this survey of northeastern Louisiana, where the town's street grid—including Oak St, Maple St, and Magnolia St—sits amidst a complex hydrological landscape. The area is defined by the shifting boundaries of Franklin Parish and Catahoula Parish, a region characterized by numerous waterways such as Black Bayou, Loften Bayou, and the winding Bayou Falcon. Genealogy researchers will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, including Hope Estate Cem, Central Cem, and Humble Cem. Smaller rural settlements like Metropolis, Elam, and Peck are linked by a network of local routes such as Roach Rd and Pete Ensminger Rd, reflecting the agricultural and residential patterns of the late 2010s. The presence of Turkey Cr Lake and the Deer Creek Cutoff further illustrates the intricate drainage systems central to life in this part of the Mississippi Delta region.
