GUIDE TO THE COLLECTION
Collection Title: CALCASIEU PARISH AERIAL MAP COLLECTION
Accession Number: 066
HOW TO USE CALCASIEU PARISH AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHS: The eastern three-quarters of
Calcasieu Parish were photographed in 1940 in a series of lines running alternately north
and south in an eastward sweep across the parish. The photographs begin with Series CGG-2
on a north-south line through Edgerley and continue to Series CGG-10 at Bayou Lacassine.
Likewise, the western quarter of the parish was photographed in the same manner, but in a
sweep running east to west. These photographs begin with Series CGG-11 on a north-south
line west of Edgerley and end with Series CGG-13 terminating south of Orange, Texas.
Please note that the following photographs do not follow the general pattern explained
above: CGG-1-4 to CGG-1-12 (Sabine River at Beauregard Parish border south to Deweyville,
Texas), CGG-11-2 to CGG-11-7 (eastern DeQuincy south to Kansas City Southern Railroad),
and CGG-13-82 to CGG-13-88 (Indian Bayou Canal south to area south of Hayes). To find a
photograph of a certain place, find its approximate location on the attached map. The map
shows roughly the areas captured by each north-south line of photographs. See which lines
of photographs surround your location and check the descriptions of these photographs in
the guide. Sorry, we do not have any aerial photographs of the area north of the Calcasieu
River around Moss Bluff and Gillis.

"Aerial Maps of Calcasieu Will Be Made for AAA." Lake Charles
American Press, June 6, 1939, p. 4. Washington, D.C.,
June 5--The cost of making aerial maps of 1,094 square miles of Calcasieu
Parish land will be $2.13 per square mile, agricultural officials said today.
The Calcasieu Parish work will be done by the Edgar Tobin Aerial Surveys of San
Antonio, which has contracted to do the 1,094 square miles entirely separate of
other Louisiana land for a price of $2,330.22. Cost of photographing the land
and making the maps will be deducted from conservation payments made to farmers
under the 1939 AAA conservation program. A total of 9,955 Louisiana square
miles, in 15 parishes, are scheduled to be mapped this summer. The maps, when
completed, will show in almost startling detail the features of a farmer's land.
AAA officials say that one can readily determine which fields are in rice, for
instance, and which in cotton or other crops. Some farmers purchase extra copies
of maps of their farms to send to friends and relatives, or to frame and hang in
their homes. |
