1958 Map of Pine Grove

About this map

The Amite River carves a winding path through this corner of Louisiana, serving as the natural boundary between East Baton Rouge Parish and Livingston Parish. During the mid-twentieth century, the landscape was a mix of small crossroads communities and rural institutions, including Camp Istrouma and a Girl Scout Camp situated near the river's bends. The area is dense with family-named landmarks and cemeteries such as Mahoney Cem, Womack Cem, and Friendship Ch Cem, reflecting deep-rooted settlement patterns. Significant transport relics like the Old Railroad Grade and Railroad Grade cut across the eastern terrain near Pine Grove, hinting at the region's logging or industrial past. From the established town of Denham Springs in the southwest to the quiet stations at Bluff Creek, the map details a world defined by its bayous, including Bayou Duplantier and Colyell Creek, and the small country churches that anchored these remote communities.
