1955 Map of Coryell

About this map

Middle Bosque River defines the northern reaches of this rural landscape where Bosque, Coryell, and McLennan counties converge. During the mid-1950s, this region remained a network of small agricultural settlements and crossroads communities, with life centered around local institutions like St Johns Ch and Cannan Ch. The area is notably punctuated by numerous windmills, suggesting a reliance on groundwater for livestock and domestic use across the upland divides between Rainey Creek and Bluff Creek.
