1956 Map of Grand Island Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Louisville and Nashville railroad cuts a straight path through the low-lying coastal marshes of Hancock County, serving the small communities of Ansley and Lakeshore. This coastal landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways like Bayou Caddy and Point Clear Bayou, where land use is rooted in historical land grants such as the George Mares Claim and the Ebenezer Reese Claim. These early property divisions stand in contrast to the shifting, tide-washed environments of Heron Bay and the isolated Grand Island.
