1975 Map of Benton
USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
Benton serves as the focal point of this mid-1970s landscape, featuring its prominent Courthouse and the Benton Oil and Gas Field to the northeast. The geography is fundamentally defined by the Cypress Bayou Reservoir, which appears here during its formative years with a Cypress Bayou Dam and areas marked as under construction. This expansion of the reservoir over Cypress Bayou significantly altered the local environment, inundating previous creek-side features while preserving a network of cemeteries like Raymond Cem and Sibley Cem on its rising shores.
