1956 Map of Boyce

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The Red River meanders through the heart of this mid-century survey, defining the industrial and agricultural character of Central Louisiana. Along its banks, the Texas and Pacific railroad serves the established town of Boyce and the nearby Zimmerman mill pond, while the presence of England Air Force Base on the eastern edge signals the area's strategic importance during the Cold War era. The map reveals a densely settled rural landscape, particularly south of the river where numerous churches and cemeteries, such as Second Evening Star Ch and First Bethlehem Ch, anchor small farming communities.
