1937 Map of Strong
USGS Topo · Published 1937About this map
Wilmington and New London anchor this 1930s landscape in southern Union County, an area defined by its intricate network of bayous and creeks. The terrain is characterized by the meandering Bayou de Loutre and the low-lying Pine Island, while the presence of the Strong Pumping Station and a Sawmill indicate the infrastructure supporting the local economy. For those tracing community history, the map preserves the locations of vital institutions such as Ward Chapel, North Chapel, and the Union School, alongside family-named landmarks like the McClendon Mill. The inclusion of the Fire Tower and the Wallace Cem offers specific points of reference for genealogists and researchers looking to locate vanished homesteads or burial sites in this heavily wooded river-bottom country.
