Nearest Communities to Houma,
Listed Parish-By-Parish

The purpose of this page is to identify those communities that are closest to Houma, on a Parish-by-Parish basis. To explain further, let's use the example from the Genealogy Helper Page for Houma:

We have great-grandparents who lived in a small city in the southeast corner of their home parish. During their lives, most doctors were in the next parish to the east. Almost all of the nearby churches and cemeteries were in the parish to the south.

When doing our research, we make it a practice to expand our search by looking in neighboring parishes in addition to the parish in which they lived:  their home parish contained property and probate records; the parish to the east contained birth and death records; the parish to the south contained their burial records. If we hadn't checked the neighboring parishes, we would have missed many valuable sources of information.

Keep in mind that when we give a distance, it's a 'straight-line' distance starting from Houma.<1>

If you're researching your genealogy, we hope that the following information helps.


Houma is located in Terrebonne Parish and is the Parish Seat.

The following 4 parishes adjoin and form the boundaries of Terrebonne Parish: Assumption, Lafourche, Saint Martin & Saint Mary.

Our Gazetteer shows that there are 228 communities within 40 miles [64.4 km]<1> of Houma. Of these communities, 167 are located in parishes other than Terrebonne Parish.

We usually exclude communities where we still need to verify their location,<2> but for the purpose of this page, we have included the unverified ('unver') and historic ('hist') communities.

After starting with the home parish for Houma (which is Terrebonne Parish), we list the parishes in alphabetical order and for each of those parishes, the closest communities are listed in order of their distance from Houma

Footnotes ...

<1>Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' (or point-to-point) distance. A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- Houma) to Point B. In other words: 'As the crow flies'.
<2>Our data comes from many sources and some sources are more dependable than others. When we add communities to our Gazetteer, we try to verify that we have the correct location for the community. We mark a community as 'Unverified' when we aren't confident about our data and want to do further checking.

We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now.

Since our Gazetteer contains over 100,000 communities, verifying everything is going to take time. If you find an error or can help us to improve our accuracy, please let us know.
