1962 Map of Cedar Springs

About this map

Fort Milam (Site) stands near the eastern bank of the Brazos River, marking a key point of early frontier history in this corner of Falls County. This mid-century survey reveals a landscape defined by small rural congregations and family burial grounds, including China Grove Ch, Carter Munsch Ch, and the Jerusalem Cem. While the Missouri Pacific railroad cuts through the northeastern corner, the interior is crisscrossed by gravel roads like Barganier Road and numerous watercourses such as Perry Creek and Poole Creek. The settlement at Cedar Springs serves as a local hub, surrounded by active industrial sites including several Gravel Pits and an Oil Well. This edition includes 1970s revisions, noted in purple, which track the slow evolution of rural homesteads and infrastructure alongside traditional landmarks like Bull Hill.
