About this map

The northern reaches of Campo Alegre and Hato Arriba show a landscape in transition during this 1950 survey, where traditional agricultural clusters meet emerging residential developments like the Parcelas de Campo Alegre. The map documentation, compiled from surveys by the United States Department of the Interior between 1937 and 1949, captures the fine-grained social geography of the region. Local life centers on the Escuela Segunda Unidad and the Iglesia de Dios Pentecostal near Cuatro Calles, while the Estacion Cuchi along the railroad line marks a vital transport link for the local economy.

Dense topographic contours define the southern areas of Aibonito and Bayaney, where the terrain is crisscrossed by specialized access routes such as Desvio Campamento and Desvio Hess. The municipal boundary between Municipio de Hatillo and Municipio de Arecibo bisects the map, illustrating the administrative divisions of this coastal interior. This detailed study is particularly valuable for genealogists tracing family roots in established settlements like Dominguito and Esperanza.
