1958 Map of Bronson

About this map

Angelina National Forest covers the western half of this East Texas survey, where the landscape is defined by the dense network of drainage flowing into Couchatana Creek and Turkey Creek. The settlement pattern in the late 1950s consists of small rural communities and family-named landmarks like Maxey Town, Macune, and Bronson. Genealogists will find a wealth of local history in the numerous country churches and burial grounds scattered through the piney woods, including Little Flock Ch, Pisgah Cem, and the Norwood School. Transport through the area is anchored by the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe Railroad Grade, which cuts diagonally across the terrain, passing near Chinquapin. The map also indicates areas to be flooded by the proposed Sam Rayburn Reservoir, capturing the topography just before significant hydrological changes altered these creek valleys.
