1892 Map of Donaldsonville

USGS Topo · Published 1905

About this map

Mississippi River plantations and riverine settlements dominate this late-nineteenth-century landscape, where the seasonal whims of the water dictate the geography. A significant geological event is documented near College Point, where the Nita Crevasse and its subsequent alluvial deposit altered the terrain of St James Parish. The map reveals a highly structured corridor of land along the riverbanks, featuring established hubs like Donaldsonville, Darrowville, and Port Barrow.
