1913 Map of Wilson Point
USGS Topo · Published 1913About this map
Mississippi River dynamics dominate this 1913 preliminary edition, which focuses on the narrow strip of land between the levee system and the water's edge in East Carroll Parish. The map reveals a landscape defined by seasonal flooding and agricultural utility, where the settlement of Wilson Point sits near the crescent of Wilson Point Lake. Further south, the community of Cottonwood and the Morning Star Church anchor the rural life of the district. The mapping effort, a collaboration between the U.S. Geological Survey and the Fifth Louisiana Levee District, precisely tracks the shoreline and topographic elevations crucial for flood control during this era. Land plots are meticulously numbered, showing the partition of riverfront property near Opossum Point as it stood before modern river channelization significantly altered these alluvial banks.
