1958 Map of Dorchester

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The small community of Dorchester serves as the central hub in this mid-century look at Grayson County, where the plains of North Texas meet a dense network of seasonal waterways and industry. Two major rail lines dominate the landscape, with the St Louis Southwestern running north-south and the St Louis San Francisco cutting diagonally through the eastern section near Choctaw Branch. This era shows a landscape transitioning between agricultural roots and early industrial extraction, evidenced by the numerous Gravel Pits and an active Oil Well located north of the tracks.
