About this map

The Mississippi Alabama State Line bisects this coastal survey, where the marshlands of the Gulf South meet early 20th-century industry. The northern reaches of the map show the impact of the Louisville & Nashville R. R., which anchored small settlements like Pecan and Grand Bay. This rail connection facilitated the transport of local goods, particularly from the prominent Oyster factory located on the eastern shore of Portersville Bay.
