About this map

Kisatchie National Forest defines the northwest corner of this Louisiana landscape, where the borders of Natchitoches, Rapides, and Vernon parishes converge. The 1937 geography is shaped heavily by timber and transport, evidenced by the extensive Logging Railroad Grade and active Logging Railroad lines that crisscross the terrain. Small settlements and industrial camps such as Zimmerman Camp and Hoods Camp are scattered near the Red River, reflecting the era's rural economy. Genealogists and local historians will find significant landmarks throughout the survey, including the Comrade Cem and Blackwell Cem, alongside community anchors like Pine Grove Ch and Comrade Ch. Drainage patterns from Devils Creek, Spanish Bayou, and Comrade Creek illustrate the low-lying wetlands that dictated the placement of early roads and rail spurs like Temple Spur.
