1955 Map of Lake Eugenie

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Lake Eugenie and the surrounding marshlands of St. Bernard Parish appear in this mid-century survey as a complex network of coastal waterways and brackish basins. The terrain is dominated by vast expanses of swamp and open water, where major tidal channels like Bayou La Loutre and Biloxi Bayou provide navigation through the wetlands. The coastline is deeply indented by False Mouth Bay and Bay Boudreau, with small landmarks like Pirate Point and Wild Goose Island breaking the horizon. Local history is reflected in names like Lake of the Mound, which suggests the presence of indigenous earthworks, and Stump Lagoon, likely named for its submerged cypress remains. A prominent Spoil Bank along the southern bayou indicates early dredging activity and maritime infrastructure in this water-bound landscape.
