1935 Map of Knobel
USGS Topo · Published 1938About this map
The Black River and Little Black River dominate this 1930s landscape, winding through a complex system of sloughs and cut-offs such as Cow Ford Bend and Little River Cut-off. The region reflects a massive engineering effort to manage the alluvial wetlands, evidenced by the extensive network of drainage features including Cypress Ditch No 1, Byrnes Lateral, and Main Ditch. This era shows the transition of the Bottomlands from swampy wilderness to a productive agricultural grid, centered on rail hubs like Corning and Knobel.
