1967 Map of Lobdell

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Old Indian Treaty Boundary slices diagonally across this Bolivar County landscape, marking an enduring historical line amidst the Delta's agricultural grid. In the late 1960s, the community of Lobdell sits along the Illinois Central railroad, surrounded by a complex network of waterways including Stokes Bayou, Ann Bayou, and Christmas Lake. The map reveals a deeply rooted rural society defined by small churches and family burial grounds, such as Rice Chapel, Macedonia Ch, and the Polk-Royal Cem. To the east, the meandering Bogue Phalia creates a jagged natural border, contrasting with the straight irrigation flumes and pipelines that support the local plantations. Farther south, the settlement of Longshot and the Egypt Ridge Cem anchor the lower half of the quadrangle, where Stillwater Bayou and Clear Bayou drain the low-lying terrain.
