1942 Map of Talisheek
USGS Topo · Published 1942About this map
The low-lying piney woods and bayous of St. Tammany Parish are documented here just before mid-century, centered on the settlements of Bush and Talisheek. The landscape is a dense network of watercourses, including the Abita Creek and Talisheek Creek, which feed into specialized wetlands like the Talisheek Swamp and Gum Swamp. This 1942 survey reveals the area's timber and transport infrastructure, featuring the Gulf Mobile and Ohio RR running north-south through the parish.
