Frenier

Frenier combines a quiet lakeside setting with the constant movement of Interstate 55, reflecting its position on the southern shore of Lake Maurepas. This small community in St. John the Baptist Parish lies beside the Manchac wetlands, where cypress swamp and open water shape the route between New Orleans and Baton Rouge. Fishing and logging were central to Frenier’s early life, both closely tied to the lake and surrounding swamp. The settlement was devastated by the 1915 hurricane, which brought severe loss of life to the area.
