1956 Map of Eidson Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Leon River winds through this central Texas landscape, which is marked by the transition from upland ridges to fertile bottomlands. In the mid-1950s, the area's rural character was defined by a network of creeks and branches, including Mesquite Creek, Indian Creek, and Gum Branch. Local community life is anchored by landmarks like Providence Ch and the Massingill Cem, while the industrial history of the region is etched into the earth by the Old Railroad Grade and several Gravel Pit operations. The terrain is notably punctuated by Twin Mountains and the prominent ridge of Long Point. To the south, Eidson Lake serves as a significant water feature, situated near the Gann Cem. A modern Pipeline cuts across the survey, representing mid-century infrastructure expansion through this Hamilton County terrain.
