How to Use This Marthaville, Louisiana Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Marthaville, Louisiana. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Louisiana or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Marthaville.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Marthaville, Louisiana

Marthaville is a locality in Natchitoches Parish, Louisiana, United States. It is a small community with a population of 90. The population density is 30.8 people per km². Marthaville is located at 31.7388°N, 93.3966°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 71450.

Marthaville exists as a quiet accumulation of pine-shadowed earth where the Mayous Bayou carves a humid, winding path through the heavy clay. It lies 18.3 miles west of Natchitoches, LA (from Natchitoches, LA: bearing 265°T), and is situated 12.8 miles north-northeast of Many. The air here holds the weight of deep inland summers, a thick and lingering warmth that settles over the piney woods and the low, damp depressions of the land. To the west, the distant rise of the Dolette Hills softens the horizon into a blurred, violet-gray silhouette against the fading light of dusk. Nearby, the terrain dips into the dark, moisture-rich expanse of Fish Pond Bottom, while the stillness of Lockes Ponds lies only a short distance away, reflecting the sky in a mirror of stagnant, tea-colored water.

Marthaville grew from the steady, rhythmic labor of generations who worked the timber and the soil, finding permanence in the red clay of the Louisiana interior. The local economy remains tethered to the land’s natural yield, echoing a history defined by the slow extraction of resources and the quiet endurance of families who have seen the seasons turn across the same fields for decades. Beyond the immediate reach of the Red River National Wildlife Refuge, the pace of life maintains a deliberate, unhurried cadence, unbothered by the frantic pulse of the outside world. Here, the culture is composed of small, daily habits and the persistent, low-frequency hum of a place that is entirely content to remain exactly where it is.

About This Marthaville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Marthaville, Louisiana. Coordinates: 31.738778, -93.396563. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Marthaville includes the ZIP code (71450), telephone area code (318), county seat of Natchitoches Parish, and school district assignment (Natchitoches Parish School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
