About this map

Big Creek winds through a landscape of bayous and agricultural sloughs in this mid-1930s survey of northeast Louisiana. The Illinois Central RR serves as a primary transit corridor, connecting Rayville and Delhi across the northern reaches of the sheet. Between the established towns, the map reveals a network of rural life defined by community hubs such as Hill Ridge Ch & Sch and Harmony Ch. Along the eastern edge, the presence of landings like Warsaw Ldg and Indian Ldg on Macon Bayou indicates the historical importance of waterway access for local trade and transport. The terrain is marked by numerous drainage features, including Turkey Creek and Wildcat Creek, which dictate the placement of early state roads and small settlements like Baskinton and Baskin.
