1963 Map of Kemper

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Cote Blanche Island rises above the surrounding marshes and bayous of St. Mary Parish, providing a stark topographical contrast to the low-lying coastal plains. This 1960s landscape is defined by an intricate network of drainage and transportation, where the Intracoastal Waterway cuts through the southern reaches and the Southern Pacific railroad links small agricultural communities. The map documents a transition from plantation-era heritage to modern industrial infrastructure, evidenced by the proximity of the Kilgore Plantation and Home Place to newer developments like the Power Plant and various pipelines.
