About this map

Keatchie serves as the primary hub in this corner of DeSoto Parish, where local life is defined by a dense network of parish roads and the serpentine courses of Bushneck Bayou and Bayou Castor. The landscape reflects a mix of public infrastructure and rural industry, featuring the Caddo Correctional Institute to the north and the expansive Bethany Longstreet Oil and Gas Field further west.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family-named landmarks and local burial grounds, including Fullalove Cem, Gatlin Cem, and Flower Hill Cem. In the northwest, Four Forks stands near the Four Forks Lookout Tower, while the presence of Maeora Airport and the settlement of Kolter illustrate the varied development of this Louisiana landscape into the early 21st century. The map also traces smaller waterways like Cypress Bayou and Rochelle Bayou, which continue to shape the regional topography.
