1957 Map of China Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Brazos River snakes through the northern reaches of this mid-century McLennan County landscape, creating the prominent peninsula of Wortham Bend. Further south, the Bosque River carves a deep valley through the western terrain, flanked by Wildcat Canyon and several unnamed ridges. This 1950s survey documents a predominantly rural agricultural district at the edge of the Texas Blackland Prairies, centered on the community of China Springs. Numerous gravel extraction sites are scattered across the uplands, particularly near Line Creek, indicating the local importance of the aggregate industry during this era of regional growth.
