About this map

The Kansas City Southern railroad serves as the primary corridor through this section of De Soto Parish, connecting the community of Frierson in the north to Kingston and Holly further south. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of bayous, including Brushy Bayou, Sand Bayou, and Rambin Bayou, which drain the low-lying terrain. Significant local heritage is evident at the Lands End Plantation near the headwaters of Sylvest Creek, while several rural houses of worship such as Mt Moriah Ch and St Rest Ch anchor the scattered settlements. The mid-20th-century economic footprint of the region is clearly marked by the Holly Gas and Oil Field, which is interlaced with pipelines and drilling infrastructure. Near the eastern edge, the Clear Lake Spillway regulates local water levels, while landmarks like Kingston Station highlight the historical importance of the rail line to these rural Louisiana communities.
