1966 Map of Farrar

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Farrar stands as the central hub of this Central Texas landscape, situated at a junction of routes between the Navasota River and the headwaters of numerous creeks. This 1966 field-checked survey reveals a quiet agricultural and early energy-producing region where the boundaries of Limestone, Freestone, and Leon Counties converge. Evidence of early settlement is preserved in the location of the Oaks Cem and Holt Cem, alongside the community at Fair Oaks. The landscape is heavily defined by its drainage network, with Sanders Creek and Big Creek carving through the terrain toward the river. Local industry and utility are marked by a Gas Well near the center of the sheet and a Mine in the southeast corner. The presence of New Hope Church and the nearby New Hope settlement indicates the importance of these rural social centers in the mid-20th century, before more modern infrastructure bypassed many of these local landmarks.
