About this map

The Navasota River forms a distinct natural boundary through this rural landscape, dividing Grimes and Brazos counties. Originally compiled from 1919 Army Corps of Engineers data and reprinted for civil use in the 1950s, the map reveals a network of agricultural communities and early rail stops. Small hubs like Carlos and Mesa are centered around their respective post offices, while the educational life of the countryside is marked by rural schoolhouses including Reliance School and the Jarvis School.
