About this map

The town of Welsh sits at the northern edge of this coastal prairie landscape, defined by its position along the Southern Pacific railroad and U S Highway No 90. This mid-century survey illustrates a region dominated by water management and agriculture, where natural waterways like East Bayou Lacassine and Bayou Chene are integrated into a complex network of man-made infrastructure. The map documents several irrigation and drainage systems vital to the local rice-growing economy, including the Welsh Canal, Sturdivant Canal, and Farm Canal.
