1962 Map of Farmersville

About this map

Farmersville serves as the primary hub of this eastern Collin County landscape in the early 1960s, defined by the crossing of the Louisiana And Arkansas and the Gulf Colorado And Santa Fe railroads. The town's grid is dense with local institutions, including an Athletic Field, High Sch, and a prominent Water Tank, while the surrounding countryside is dotted with rural centers like Merit and the small settlement at Markham. The terrain is deeply etched by a network of waterways including Caddo Creek and Indian Creek, with the managed waters of North Lake and South Lake situated just south of the main town site.
