1920 Map of Burnett Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

Lynchburg and the surrounding marshy lowlands of eastern Harris County appear here during a period of industrial transition, where the San Jacinto River and Buffalo Bayou Ship Channel meet. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of bayous and oxbow lakes, including Lost Lake, Burnett Bay, and Crystal Bay, which shaped early transportation and settlement patterns. The presence of the McCombs Ferry and the S P System Houston and New Orleans Line underscores the importance of both water and rail transit for the region's economy.
