1935 Map of Bay Labauve

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Grand Cheniere Ridge and its neighboring cheniers dominate this coastal Louisiana landscape, representing narrow, elevated strands of habitable ground amidst the surrounding marshland. These ridges dictated the settlement patterns of the mid-1930s, providing a foundation for the small communities of Creole and Oak Grove. The map details a period when infrastructure was just beginning to lace through the wetlands, including the path of State Highway No 292 and a Proposed Trail cutting through the interior.
