1965 Map of Bluff Dale
USGS Topo · Published 1967About this map
Bluff Dale serves as the primary hub of activity in this mid-1960s survey of eastern Erath County, situated along the North Paluxy River and the tracks of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad. The landscape is defined by the convergence of several waterways, including the South Paluxy River and Richardson Creek, which carve through the terrain beneath landmarks like Pilot Knob. This area preserves a dense record of early rural settlement through its scattered places of worship and burial grounds. Genealogists and local historians can find the locations of Wesley Chapel Cem, Knob Hill Cem, and Acrea Cem, along with the Mt Zion Ch and Wesley Chapel. The presence of numerous Gravel Pits along the riverbanks suggests the local extractive industry that supported the region's development during this era.
