About this map

The Pearl River snakes along the Louisiana and Mississippi state line in this 1939 field examination, marking a landscape of dense cypress swamps and seasonal waterways. The terrain is defined by a network of bayous and ponds, including Persimmon Bayou, Duck Pond, and Hells Gate, illustrating the complex hydrology of the lower river basin before modern flood control altered these drainage patterns. Small communities and family landmarks are concentrated along the higher ground of the western bank, particularly near Pools Bluff and Red Bluff.
