1954 Map of Grosse Tete

About this map

Bayou Grosse Tete snakes through the heart of this Iberville Parish landscape, serving as a historic corridor for both water and rail transportation. The Texas and Pacific railroad follows the high ground of the levee system, anchoring the linear settlements of Rosedale and Grosse Tete. These communities emerged along the fertile banks where the bayou provided essential drainage and transport. The map reveals a transition from these established town sites into the surrounding wetlands, marked by a dense network of canals, ditches, and spoil banks.
