About this map

Kisatchie National Forest dominates this section of the Louisiana interior, where the boundaries of Winn Parish and Grant Parish meet. The landscape is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Big Cr, Buckey Cr, and Little Bear Cr, which carve through the timbered terrain. Small rural settlements like New Moore, Moore, and Packton are connected by a web of local roads such as Wilder Rd and Zion Rd.

Genealogists will find several family and community landmarks, including Melton Cem and Jordon Hill Cem. The southern portion of the map near the Grant Parish line shows significant marshy areas along Boggy Br and Farmer Br. This map illustrates the intersection of public forest lands with established parish homesteads and the persistence of small-scale naming conventions across the local hydrology.
