1963 Map of Walls
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
Smithfield and Chamberlin anchor the western bank of the Mississippi River in this detailed look at West Baton Rouge Parish. The landscape is defined by the sharp bend around Profit Island, where Profit Island Chute separates the island from Mobile Ridge. The area's plantation and post-Civil War heritage is evident in the dense concentration of local institutions, including St Pauls Ch, Zion Traveler Ch, and the Devall Sch. The Texas and Pacific and Missouri Pacific railroads cut across the low-lying terrain, connecting small riverfront communities like Arbroth and Alfords with the interior. To the west, the map captures the transition into more aquatic territory marked by Lake Clause and numerous bayous, reflecting the intricate water-management needs of this alluvial region.
