1954 Map of Leesville

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Leesville serves as the primary hub in this mid-century portrait of Vernon Parish, anchored by the Kansas City Southern railroad line and the expansive Anacoco Lake to the southwest. The landscape is defined by its social and civic infrastructure, from the War Memorial Hospital and F B Younger Infirmary to numerous country congregations such as Holly Grove Church, Shady Grove Church, and White Pine Church. The mapping of several dismantled railroad segments hints at the evolving timber and transport economy of the region.
