About this map

Bayou Macon defines the border between West Carroll and East Carroll parishes in this 1909 survey, snaking through a landscape shaped by the early timber industry. The river's winding path is the central focus, punctuated by Ashton Bridge and a notable Abandoned Bridge further downstream. The local economy is anchored by Cook and McLean's Sawmill, which is connected to a network of drainage and transport routes including a Tram Road. The map provides specific detail on the drainage patterns of the bottomland, capturing the courses of Three Bayou and Wilson Bayou. This preliminary edition, published by the Fifth Louisiana Levee District and the U.S. Geological Survey, reflects the transition of the Louisiana-Arkansas borderlands into an industrial timber and agricultural region prior to significant modern levee developments.
