1958 Map of Center
USGS Topo · Published 1959About this map
The town of Center serves as the focal point of this late-1950s survey of East Texas, where the intersection of highways and local roads radiates through the surrounding timberlands and creek bottoms. The landscape is defined by the Sabine National Forest to the east and the winding Sabine River, which marks the state boundary between Shelby County and De Soto Parish. This era captures a region deeply connected by rail, with the Texas and New Orleans RR passing through Tenaha and Joaquin, while the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe RR cuts a diagonal path toward the county seat.
