the land loss started in 1906 when the Corps of engineers dammed off the Bayou Lafourch entrance from the Mississippi River . Within 5 years salt water intrusion had backed up the bayou as far as the sugar mill at raceland. In the 1960 period there were dead oak trees along the road all the way to grand isle .

Agreed, in my opinion that has been by far the main factor, with hurricanes being the second biggest factor.
