The old survey maps record 2 holes inside the city or town limits, 0 of them shafts or tunnels.

A point in either file is a location, not a property line: the sheet shows the opening on the surface, not the rooms under it. The record that shows what runs under a parcel is the mine map. The OSMRE National Mine Map Repository holds scanned underground mine maps and answers requests for a named mine or an area. Louisiana's underground mines are salt mines; no state abandoned mine inventory is published.

The purple dots come off the old survey maps and the darkest of those are shafts and tunnels; the red, green and orange ones are mine records. The pale shapes with a name around it are the neighbouring places, from the Census Bureau. Hover a dot for its name.
