1948 Map of Chopin

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Chopin and its surrounding hill country occupy the center of this postwar landscape, where the Cane River cuts through the northeast corner near the Texas and Pacific railroad line. The map reveals a complex network of rural infrastructure within and bordering the Kisatchie National Forest, featuring a notable concentration of country churches and schools such as Emanuel Ch, Mora Sch, and Clifton Sch. The southern portion of the sheet is marked by the presence of a Logging RR winding through the Dough Hills, illustrating the era's active timber economy. Genealogists will find a wealth of family-named landmarks and resting places, including the Blackwell Cem and Neal Cem, alongside small settlements like Gorum, Janie, and Lena. From the Chopin Camp Ridge to the lowlands of Cypre Brake, the map provides a look at the transition between agricultural riverfronts and managed forest land.
