1959 Map of Cedar Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The rugged escarpment of Cedar Bluff and Inspiration Point dominates the western landscape of this mid-century survey, creating a dramatic natural boundary for the emerging communities of the Dallas-Ellis county line. The town of Cedar Hill sits at the center of a complex network of recreational and religious sites, including Camp Ellowi, Mount Lebanon Encampment, and the Cedar Hill Bible Camp. These institutional footprints, nestled among the headwaters of Red Oak Creek and Cedar Hill Branch, suggest a region transitioning from traditional rural life to a suburban retreat for the nearby metropolitan areas.
