1958 Map of Fort Necessity

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Boeuf River meanders through this portion of Franklin and Caldwell parishes, defining a landscape of bayous, sloughs, and oxbow lakes in the late 1950s. The settlement at Ft Necessity anchors the eastern side of the survey, supported by community institutions like the Ft Necessity School and Boeuf Prairie Church. To the west, the Lafourche Bayou Cutoff and associated spoil banks indicate significant water management and drainage efforts intended to tame the low-lying terrain.
