1915 Map of Addicks

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Missouri Kansas and Texas tracks across the central prairie of Harris County, anchoring the small early-century settlements of Barker and Addicks. This landscape is defined by the winding drainage systems of Buffalo Bayou and its many tributaries, including South Mayde Creek and Langham Creek, which are shown before the massive mid-century flood control projects transformed the region. The map reveals a dispersed rural society centered on local institutions like the German Methodist Church and a network of one-room schoolhouses, including the Barker School and Grisbee School.
