1952 Map of Allemands
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
The Petit Lac Des Allemands and the winding Bayou Des Allemands define this early 1950s landscape on the boundary of St. Charles and Lafourche Parishes. The settlement of Allemands serves as a central hub where the Southern Pacific railroad crosses the water, neighboring the smaller communities of Vallier and Cypres. This era shows a transition from traditional bayou life to industrial extraction, evidenced by the extensive Paradis Oil Field with its grid of numbered canals, such as Canal No 24 and Canal No 12, and several Oil Tanks. Local heritage is anchored by landmarks like Antioch Ch, Shell-Mound Sch, and the Shell Mound Cem, providing valuable touchpoints for genealogists. To the south, the intricate wetlands of Simeneaux Ponds and Dufrene Ponds surround Black Prince Island, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Louisiana basin.
