1962 Map of Ashland

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Lake O' the Pines dominates the northern reaches of this East Texas terrain, where the waters of Arms Creek and Eagle Creek gather along the shoreline of the Pines. This area is a patchwork of rural crossroad communities and timbered bottoms, reflecting the transition of the mid-20th century landscape. Near Ashland, the presence of a Landing Strip and numerous Borrow Pits indicates localized industrial activity and infrastructure development. The map meticulously records the intersection of three counties, where Upshur, Gregg, and Harrison boundaries meet. Genealogists can trace early family sites through landmarks like Jones Cem, Shady Grove Cem, and Davis Cem, while local churches such as Davidson Chapel and Shady Grove Ch serve as enduring anchors for the surrounding settlements of Old Diana and Macedonia.
