About this map

The Mississippi River defines the landscape of this river-parish region, where massive bends like Point Houmas and Bringier Point dictate the layout of early settlements and agriculture. In the early 1960s, the area reflects a deep-rooted plantation economy transitioning into the industrial era, with prominent estates such as Dugas Plantation, St Mary Plantation, and Delia Plantation still clearly identified. The city of Donaldsonville serves as the focal point, positioned at the head of Bayou Lafourche.
