1992 Map of Plaquemine
USGS Topo · Published 1992About this map
The Mississippi River creates a massive, sweeping curve that defines this landscape, separating the Iberville and West Baton Rouge Parish lines via dramatic bends at Duncan Point and Manchac Point. In this early 1990s record, the transition from large-scale agriculture to industrial extraction is evident. Historic riverside estates like St Louis Plantation, Cottage Plantation, and Evergreen Plantation sit adjacent to modern energy infrastructure, including the Sunshine Oil Field and Point Pleasant Gas Field. The town of Plaquemine serves as the focal point, where the Plaquemine Lock connects the river to Bayou Plaquemine. Local life is anchored by established neighborhood markers such as St Johns High Sch, the Laboring Society Hall, and the Iberville Parish Civic Center. Smaller settlements like Morrisonville and Turnerville line the western bank, illustrating the persistent settlement patterns along the river's levee system.
