1971 Map of Flag Pond

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Somerville Lake dominates this landscape on the borders of Burleson, Lee, and Washington counties, its waters flooding the lower reaches of Yegua Creek. The survey, updated with 1980s data, illustrates the development of lakeside recreation at Birch Creek State Park and Nails Creek State Park. Away from the shoreline, the map reveals a rural topography defined by scattered Oil Field activity and deep-rooted community markers. Genealogists can identify localized landmarks such as Post Oak School and St Mary Ch, along with burial sites like Birch Cem and Flat Prairie Cem. The convergence of East Yegua Creek and Middle Yegua Cr highlights the complex drainage system feeding into the reservoir, while numerous smaller streams like Hickory Creek and Cedar Creek carve through the surrounding countryside.
