1892 Map of Cut-Off

USGS Topo · Published 1892

About this map

Bayou Lafourche anchors this late 19th-century survey, its winding course lined with the narrow ribbons of settlement characteristic of the Louisiana wetlands. While the vast interior is dominated by the Grand Prairie Des Allemands and the Trembling Prairie, the map reveals early industrial and navigational engineering via the Company Canal and Harang Canal. Small outposts like Gheens and Shell Banks appear as isolated landings in a landscape defined by water.
