About this map

Forest Hill serves as a central hub in this Rapides Parish landscape, where the local economy and geography are defined by a network of creeks and timberlands. Just to the south, the village of Longleaf stands near the Forest Hill Speedway, while the Masters Creek Gas Field in the southwest corner points to the region's industrial footprint. The terrain is intricately carved by water, with Indian Cr, Mill Cr, and Hurricane Cr creating a complex drainage system that influenced early road placement.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family-named landmarks and resting places, such as Liberty Hill Cem, Butters Cem, and Moore Cem. The presence of Camp Tall Timbers and Camp Brewer near the northern boundary, along with the Woodworth Airport, highlights the area's mix of recreational use and local infrastructure during the early 21st century. This study provides a detailed look at how the rural road network, including names like Boy Scout Rd and Authus Melder Rd, connects these dispersed settlements.
