1962 Map of Ennis East

About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad corridor serves as the primary artery through this section of Ellis County, connecting the bustling city of Ennis to outlying agricultural communities. The 1962 landscape is defined by its social institutions, from the St Johns Ch and Colmesneil Ch to the Central High Sch and the Odd Fellows and Rebekahs Home Cem. Small settlements like Alma and Creechville are established alongside numerous family-named watercourses, including Village Creek, Cottonwood Creek, and Walker Creek.
