1953 Map of Comite

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Comite River and its dense network of tributaries, including Blackwater Bayou and Beaver Bayou, define the landscape of East Baton Rouge Parish during the early 1950s. This survey illustrates a rural-to-suburban transition, where established family landmarks and small communities like Puckett and Comite are connected by a growing web of roads. The distribution of spiritual and educational centers, such as Shady Grove Ch, Zoar Ch, and Central High Sch, points to a well-integrated social fabric in the countryside north of Baton Rouge.
