1962 Map of Reserve

About this map

The Mississippi River carves a deep bend through the heart of the River Parishes, where long-lot land divisions extend back from the massive Levee systems. This landscape preserves the historic ribbon-farm pattern of early French and Acadian settlement, anchored by significant riverfront landmarks like the San Francisco Plantation and Gold Mine Plantation. Towns such as Reserve, Garyville, and Laplace line the north bank, while across the water, the community of Edgard and the Wallace post office sit amidst a network of canals and bayous, including the Reserve Relief Canal and Dutch Bayou.
