Bayou Teche defines the southern portion of this landscape, its banks dotted with the settlements of Charenton, Matilda, and Sorrel. This early 1960s survey records a region where transportation and industry are bound to the water, illustrated by the Charenton Drainage and Navigation Canal and the Jeanerette Canal. Along the bayou, both the Southern Pacific and Missouri Pacific railroads run parallel to the waterway, serving the agricultural and gas interests of Iberia and St. Mary Parishes.
