About this map

Glenmora serves as the primary hub in this portion of Rapides Parish, characterized by its organized grid of streets like 8th Ave and Division St. The landscape to the north is dominated by the Kisatchie National Forest, which contains Lake Hop-O-Bee and Lake Jubeniewa. The region’s rural character is defined by several small settlements including McNary and Blanche, along with a series of cemeteries that provide significant genealogical value, such as Science Hill Cem and Rose Lawn Cem.

Waterways like Bayou Cocodrie and its many tributaries, including McKomb Br and S Prong Bayou Cocodrie, wind through the southern sections of the quadrangle. These drainage patterns influenced the placement of early roads like Hester Landing Rd and Turkey Creek Rd. The boundaries of Allen and Evangeline Parishes meet here, highlighting the intersection of local jurisdictions amidst the piney woods and creek bottoms.
