1909 Map of Lake Providence
USGS Topo · Published 1958About this map
The oxbow of Lake Providence and the shifting course of the Mississippi River dominate this early twentieth-century landscape in East Carroll Parish. The area is defined by a dense concentration of named agricultural estates, including Belle Mead Plantation, Tyrone Plantation, and Longwood Plantation, which illustrate the post-Reconstruction land patterns along the fertile alluvial plain. The town of Lake Providence sits protected behind the levee system, while the surrounding countryside is dotted with community centers like Wintersfield School and numerous local congregations such as Evergreen Church and Cane Ridge Church.
