1944 Map of Caddo Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Latex and Jefferson Forks anchor this mid-1940s borderlands survey, where the marshy transition between Harrison County, Texas, and Caddo Parish, Louisiana, is defined by a dense network of bayous and islands. The map reveals a landscape heavily shaped by water and local social infrastructure, with numerous schools and churches serving a rural population before major post-war shifts. Along the complex shoreline of Caddo Lake, features like Big Sandy Island and Westfield Pt stand out against the western shoreline, while further inland, the drainage patterns of Garden Bayou and Republican Bayou dictate the settlement layout.
