2012 Map of Kinder

About this map

Kinder serves as the primary hub in this Allen Parish landscape, where the town’s grid meets a complex network of waterways and energy infrastructure. The map reveals a transition from organized municipal streets like Benard Ave and 1st Ave to a surrounding rural expanse defined by agricultural irrigation and natural drainage. The Kinder Canal and Kinder Ditch illustrate the engineered management of the land, while the wandering path of Bayou Serpent cuts across the terrain toward settlements like Lauderdale and Coverdale. Local industry is anchored by the North Edna Oil Field and West Edna Gas Field, highlighting the region's reliance on natural resources. Genealogists will find value in the precise locations of the McGee Cem and LaBleu Cem, which are situated at the margins of the settled areas.
