1957 Map of Campti
USGS Topo · Published 1965About this map
Natchitoches anchors the southern reaches of this mid-century survey, a landscape defined by the serpentine path of the Red River and its complex network of bayous. The map documents the convergence of the Kansas City Southern and Texas and Pacific railroads near Campti, reflecting a transportation-dependent economy where the rail lines bypass the sprawling Old Spanish Lake Lowlands. Higher ground is marked by an array of small rural settlements and community landmarks like Grappes Bluff and Alpha. Cultural life is densely mapped through numerous houses of worship, such as Bright Morning Star Ch and St Marys Ch, alongside local institutions including NW State College and the Black Lake Sch. These details provide a granular look at the parish structure before late-20th-century development shifted the local footprint.
