About this map

Coastal marshlands and intricate waterways define this delta landscape where Jefferson Parish and Plaquemines Parish meet. The area is characterized by a fragile network of marshes and open water, anchored by the significant Manila Cabinash P O and Camp Dewey settlements. These outposts reflect the localized fishing and trapping economy of the mid-20th century, situated among tidal features like St Marys Pt and Saturday I.
