From the book entitled "The Free State - A History and Place-Names Study
of Livingston Parish" by the members of the Livingston Parish American
Revolution Bicentennial Committee in cooperation with the Livingston 
Parish Police Jury and the Louisiana American Revolution Bicentennial
Commission, 1976.  Reprinted by permission.  Dedicated to the memory of
Reuben Cooper and Raymond Riggs.

PINE RIDGE MARSH is located north of Bear Island in T9S-R6E, Sections 5,

6, and 8.  Because of the fact that pine trees grow so well in Livingston

Parish, there could have been many slash pines growing on this low-lying

land which contributed to the name.  ----Lucille Cooper
