1960 Map of De Ridder

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

De Ridder serves as the focal point of this 1960s topographic study, showing the city's grid expanding near the Kansas City Southern railway. The landscape reflects a mix of timber, transit, and early industrial development across the Vernon and Beauregard Parish line. Outside the main town, smaller settlements like Ludington, Bon Ami, and Rosepine appear alongside numerous rural institutions such as Cypress Creek Ch and Miller Cem. The southern portion of the map highlights the region's natural resources, from the Neale Oil Field to several prominent Gravel Pits. The intricate drainage system of Anacoco Bayou and its many tributaries, including Brushy Creek and Beckwith Creek, illustrates the complex wetlands typical of southwest Louisiana before more modern suburban sprawl reached these outlying areas.
