1958 Map of Fostoria

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Sam Houston National Forest blankets the northern landscape of this 1958 survey, where the timber economy and rail infrastructure intersect near the Montgomery and Liberty county line. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts a straight path through the center of the sheet, serving small trackside communities like Security and Fostoria. This era reveals a region defined by its watercourses and rural gathering places, from the winding path of Peach Creek to local landmarks like Calvary Ch and Pilgrim Rest Ch. To the south, the Southern Pacific line passes near Midline, while scattered oil and gas wells indicate the expanding industrial footprint of the late 1950s. Genealogists will find value in the specific locations of the Morgan Cem and Pin Oak Cem, alongside numerous family-named ponds and branches.
