GIS Analyst Tim McEwan has a passion for old maps. He recently shared a cool map he produced on his LinkedIn profile:

The map shows the 1866 State Map of Louisiana overlaid with 790 ground control points surveyed by CompassData, Inc. from 2000 to 2023.
Louisiana became the 18th state on April 30, 1812. This map was created from public survey sketches by the Department of the Interior Land Office.
