About this map

Amite River meanders across this landscape, defining the borders between Livingston, East Baton Rouge, and Ascension Parishes. During this era, the river served as a vital corridor, marked by a Head of Navigation point and the French Settlement Ferry. The map captures a transition in transportation, showing the Illinois Central railroad cutting through Denham Springs in the north, while the Airline Highway begins to reshape movement through the southern parishes near Dutch Town.
