1909 Map of Baxter Bayou
USGS Topo · Published 1909About this map
Macon Bayou forms a sharp boundary between East Carroll and West Carroll Parishes in this detailed 1909 study of the Louisiana delta. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways, where the meandering Bassett Bayou and Brushy Bayou drain the low-lying alluvial plains. The map captures a moment of transition in local transportation, marking both the Lanes Ferry Bridge and the site of Corbins Ferry (Abandoned). These crossings, along with the State Road, represent the primary lifelines for early 20th-century residents navigating the swampy terrain between Johnson Lake and the various branches of the Baxter Bayou system. The intricate hydrography, including features like Cockspur Lake and Cypress Bayou, illustrates the complex drainage patterns that the Fifth Louisiana Levee District sought to manage during this era of agricultural development.
