USGS Topo · Published 1969About this map
Southern Pacific RR tracks define the North-South industrial corridor of this North Texas landscape, connecting the growing hubs of Wilmer and Ferris. As of the late 1950s, this area at the border of Dallas and Ellis Counties shows a transition from agricultural land to established townships. The importance of local education and community history is visible through sites like Dunbar High Sch and Rocky Crest Sch, alongside multiple burial grounds such as Edgewood Cemetery and Ferris Park Cem.
