The town of Jackson and the sprawling grounds of the East Louisiana State Hospital dominate this mid-century topographic record of East Feliciana Parish. The landscape is defined by the complex water systems of West Fork Thompson Creek and McRowen Creek, with the institutional architecture of the hospital complex expanding into numbered outposts like Colony No. 5 and Colony No. 2. This survey, updated in the early 1990s, captures a transition in local infrastructure as the Illinois Central Gulf RR runs north-south through McManus and Ethel.
