1957 Map of Bruceville

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The boundary between Mc Lennan Co and Falls Co bisects this Central Texas landscape, where the agricultural and rail-based economy of the late 1950s is clearly visible. The Missouri Kansas Texas railroad serves as a primary corridor, passing through Bruceville and several small rural clusters. Rural life is anchored by community landmarks such as Cottonwood Ch, while the eventual shift in educational patterns is marked by the presence of the Cottonwood Sch (Aband). Extensive drainage systems defined by North Cow Bayou, South Cow Bayou, and Cottonwood Creek dictate the placement of local cemeteries and roads. Notable family and community burial grounds including Cox Cem, Mooreville Cem, and Beulah Cem provide essential data points for local genealogy across these two counties. This survey, updated in the late 1970s, also records several Gravel Pits, indicating localized industrial resource extraction alongside traditional farming.
