1943 Map of Creola
USGS Topo · Published 1943About this map
The Mobile River and its intricate network of bayous and islands dominate the eastern edge of this 1943 quadrangle, revealing the industrial and maritime character of Mobile County during the early war years. Heavy rail corridors including the Gulf Mobile and Ohio RR and Southern Ry converge near Chickasaw, where the Shipyard and Golf Course indicate a rapidly developing suburban and industrial fringe. To the west, the landscape transitions into upland drainage basins like Chickasaw Creek and Bayou Sara, where rural life is anchored by family-named landmarks and local institutions.
