1974 Map of Husser

About this map

Chappepeela Creek and its many tributaries, including Black Branch and Alligator Br, carve through this landscape at the intersection of Tangipahoa, Washington, and St. Tammany Parishes. The settlement of Husser serves as a local hub, surrounded by a dense network of family-named cemeteries such as Wainwright Cem, Reed Cem, and Bahm Cem. The map reveals a rural economy and community structure built around timber and small-scale agriculture, evidenced by numerous firebreaks and a string of country churches including New Sharon Ch, Mt Zion Ch, and St Dominic Ch. To the south, the terrain transitions into the lowlands of Buzzards Roost Swamp and the waters of Spring Creek Lake. The presence of the Loranger Lookout Tower underscores the importance of forestry management in this pine-heavy region during the mid-1970s.
