1994 Map of Longville

About this map

Longville stands as a primary hub in this southwest Louisiana landscape, where the local economy and infrastructure are shaped by natural gas and timber resources. The presence of a Natural Gas Compressor Station and multiple pipelines traversing the terrain reflects the industrial pulse of the area in the late twentieth century. Settlement patterns follow the higher ground between intricate drainage systems like Barnes Creek and Hurricane Creek, with smaller communities such as Ragley and Fulton situated near key transportation corridors. For the family historian, several locations marked simply as Cem and the hamlet of Burnett offer specific points of interest for tracing local lineages. The map also documents specialized land uses, including a Landing Strip near Longville and a Gravel Pit along Caney Creek, illustrating the intersection of private aviation and resource extraction.
