About this map

Franklin and the adjacent ribbon of settlements along Bayou Teche dominate the southwestern corner of this survey, revealing a landscape defined by both plantation-era geography and mid-century industrial expansion. The agricultural heritage of Iberia Parish and ST Martin Parish is visible in the placement of Oaklawn Manor, Belleview, and Camperdown, while the Southern Pacific railroad and the New Iberia And Northern Pacific provide the transport backbone for the region's commerce.
