1974 Map of Albany

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Illinois Central Gulf railroad cuts through the southern reaches of this landscape, connecting the rural communities of Albany and Baptist. The area is defined by a dense network of waterways, including the Natalbany River, Little Natalbany River, and the marshy terrain of Boggy Baygall. This mid-1970s survey highlights the transition from natural drainage to industrial activity, as evidenced by numerous Gravel Pits and Sandpits scattered near the Ponchatoula Creek.
