1964 Map of Gibson
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
The Southern Pacific railroad corridor anchors this mid-century landscape, threading through Bayou country settlements like Schriever, Donner, and Gibson. The map documents a transition from the area's agricultural past, evidenced by the Magnolia, Minerva, and Rebecca Plantation sites, to a post-war economy driven by extensive energy extraction. Numerous designated zones such as the Hollywood Oil and Gas Field and Sunrise Oil and Gas Field reveal the scale of industrial development south of Bayou Black. Cultural landmarks of the era are well-represented, ranging from the Edward Daigle Drive-in Theater near Broadmoor to numerous rural religious sites like Mt Pilgrim Ch and Beulah Ch. Local genealogists will find value in the specific placement of school-associated cemeteries, including the Price Sch Cem and Schriever Sch Cem, while the intricate network of the Intracoastal Waterway and various drainage canals like the Phillips Canal illustrate the engineering required to manage the wetlands.
