1957 Map of Bruceville

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Bruceville and Eddy anchor the western edge of this central Texas landscape, where the Missouri Kansas Texas railroad cuts through the terrain. The map captures a rural transition at the boundary of Mc Lennan Co and Falls Co, characterized by a network of drainage systems including North Cow Bayou, South Cow Bayou, and Prather Creek. Cultural landmarks are centered around established rural congregations and community hubs such as Cottonwood Ch and the neighboring Cottonwood Cem, alongside the noted Cottonwood Sch (Aband). Further east, the settlement of Mooreville serves as another focal point for local history researchers, with several family and community burial grounds like Cox Cem and Murphy Cem scattered across the creek-fed prairies. Purple revision overlays from the late 1970s reveal subtle shifts in land use, including several Gravel Pit operations that emerged since the original mid-century survey.
