1959 Map of Flag Pond

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Flag Pond lies at the heart of this landscape where the borders of Burleson, Lee, and Washington counties meet. Mapped in the late 1950s, the terrain is defined by a dendritic network of waterways, including Yegua Creek and its many tributaries like Nails Creek and Cedar Creek. The settlement pattern of the era is marked by rural community centers, particularly near Flat Prairie Ch, where a school and Flat Prairie Cem indicate a long-standing local congregation. Sparse development across the wooded hills is anchored by small landmarks such as St Mary Ch and the Post Oak Sch, providing a detailed look at the social geography of rural Central Texas before significant modernization. The presence of an Artesian Well and numerous small tanks suggests a landscape focused on livestock and seasonal water management.
