1994 Map of Welsh North

About this map

The settlement of Pine Island sits within a landscape defined by water management and industrial infrastructure in the mid-1990s. The northern reaches of the area are marked by an extensive network of pipelines and a prominent Levee system, reflecting the region's intersection with the energy sector. In the southern portion of the sheet, the Welsh Corporate Boundary delineates the northern edge of the township, while the winding course of East Bayou Lacassine provides a natural contrast to the grid-like surveying lines of the Jefferson Davis Parish interior. Local landmarks like the Substation and multiple installations of a Comm Tower anchor the rural landscape, offering specific points of reference for those tracing historical land use or utility developments. Small features like a local Cem and the drainage of Gum Gully further characterize this corner of Louisiana as it transitioned toward the turn of the twenty-first century.
