1941 Map of Cedar Point

USGS Topo · Published 1941

About this map

Mon Louis Island and the marshy coast of Mobile County define this 1941 survey, showing a landscape of small maritime settlements and intricate tidal bayous. The fishing village of Bayou La Batre is a primary hub, while the G M and O railroad connects coastal outposts like Coden and Delchamps. The map captures the shoreline before the significant development of the late 20th century, marking navigation aids like the Mobile Bay Lh and the narrow passage at Cedar Point. To the south, Dauphin Island stretches along the Mississippi Sound, with several named bayous such as Bayou Aloe and Graveline Bay providing natural shelter. The abundance of named points, including Barron Point and Pt Judith, alongside numerous smaller waterways like East Fowl River and Austin Bayou, reflects the deep integration of water-based transport and industry in this era of Alabama's gulf coast history.
