1959 Map of Calvary

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Lake Fork Reservoir dominates this Wood County landscape, shown here during a transitional phase with the planned normal pool level marked over the valley of Lake Fork Creek. The region’s economic history is etched into the terrain through various extraction sites, including the Quitman Oil Field, the Alba Oil Field, and several locations labeled as Old Mining Area. These industrial footprints contrast with the established rural character of communities like Salem and Alba, which are connected by a network of drainage systems such as Little Mustang Creek and Williams Creek. Researchers can trace the lineage of local families through rural landmarks like Searcy Cem and Pleasant Ridge Cem, or examine the remnants of transportation history along the Old Railroad Grade that cuts across the southern portion of the map near Calvary. Several churches, including Enon Ch and Pilgrims Rest No 2 Ch, serve as anchors for these long-standing rural settlements.
