1962 Map of Mount Airy

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

San Francisco Plantation and other riverfront estates define the landscape of the early 1960s along this stretch of the Mississippi River. The map captures a transitional river economy where historic sites like Evergreen Plantation and Gold Mine Plantation sit adjacent to industrial developments like the Vacherie Oil and Gas Field. The settlement pattern follows the river's curve, with the communities of Gramercy, Lutcher, and Garyville connected by the Illinois Central Railroad and the Southern Railway. North of the river, the landscape gives way to a complex network of waterways including Blind Bayou and the Amite River Diversion Canal, leading toward the southern reaches of Lake Maurepas. Local genealogists will find value in the specific locations of Woodville Cem, St Joseph Cath Ch, and several neighborhood schools that anchored these riverside parishes.
