About this map

Black Bayou meanders across this coastal marshland in the mid-1930s, defining a landscape dominated by complex waterways and isolated outposts. The survey reveals a network of drainage and transport including Grays Canal, North Fork, and the East Fork, which likely supported local navigation through the wetlands. Small settlements and specialized camps such as Lone Pine, Grays Camp, and Tee Camp suggest a seasonal or resource-based presence in this part of Cameron Parish. Elevated features like Pines Ridge and Marceaux Island provide rare dry ground amidst the expansive marsh, while Greens Lake serves as a central hydrological point. This preliminary edition, compiled in part from Air Corps aerial photographs, offers an early look at the coastal infrastructure and land lines before modern development significantly altered the southern Louisiana bayou systems.
