1947 Map of Bannister

About this map

Bannister and the surrounding piney woods of Beauregard Parish are defined here by a network of defunct timber transit routes and rural community hubs. The landscape is crisscrossed by several segments of the Old Logging Railroad Grade and the Southern Pacific Grade, illustrating the era's heavy reliance on rail for the local lumber industry. These corridors weave through a terrain dominated by watercourses like Barnes Creek and the winding Crooked Creek.
