1963 Map of Charenton

About this map

Bayou Teche defines the southern portion of this landscape, serving as a corridor for settlement and industry along its winding banks. In the 1960s, the communities of Charenton, Sorrel, and Matilda clustered near the bayou, supported by a transportation network that included both the Missouri Pacific and Southern Pacific railroads. The area reflects a complex water management system, dominated by the Atchafalaya Basin Floodway and the expansive Lake Fausse Pointe.
