1953 Map of Boling
USGS Topo · Published 1955About this map
The Sulphur Field of eastern Wharton County dominates this 1953 landscape, revealing an intensive industrial footprint centered around the company town of Newgulf. This planned settlement, built to support the massive sulphur extraction operations, sits adjacent to a large Reservoir and a complex network of Sulphur Wells, a Salt Water Canal, and a Sulphur Stock Pile. The industrial activity contrasts sharply with the surrounding agricultural and riparian lands along the San Bernard River and Caney Creek.
