1959 Map of Kinder
USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
The Calcasieu River defines the western edge of this landscape, where the prairie of southwest Louisiana meets the piney woods. In the mid-20th century, this region supported a diverse economy of timber, rice irrigation, and petroleum extraction. The town of Kinder serves as the primary hub, situated at the intersection of the Missouri Pacific and the Kinder & Northwestern RR. Local history is deeply etched into the rural landscape through family-named landmarks like Nevil Cem and Phillips Bluff, alongside several rural congregations such as Sacred Heart Ch and Pentecostal Ch.
