About this map

The Jefferson and Plaquemines Parish boundary cuts through this marshy landscape as it appeared in the mid-1930s. The region is defined by an intricate network of coastal waterways and wetlands, anchored by the vast Barataria Bay and Wilkinson Bay. Human activity is concentrated at small outposts like Manila Cabinash P O and Camp Dewey, which represent the isolated fishing and trapping communities that once thrived in the Louisiana delta.
