1948 Map of Bullard

About this map

The Neches River defines the western border of this region, winding through a landscape of creek bottoms and low hills where the boundaries of Smith, Cherokee, Henderson, and Anderson counties meet. The settlement of Bullard serves as a central hub, situated along the St St Louis Southwestern railway line which runs north toward Flint and Gresham. Further south, the Southern Pacific railroad cuts across the terrain near Cuney, providing a clear view of the mid-century rail infrastructure that once drove the local economy.
