1902 Map of Gainesville

About this map

The Red River serves as a winding, prominent boundary between Texas and the Indian Territory on this turn-of-the-century survey. Within the Chickasaw Nation to the north, small river-bottom settlements and landings define the frontier, while the Texas side shows a more established network of roads and rail centering on Gainesville. The landscape is dominated by the dramatic loops of the river, including Sivells Bend and Horseshoe Bend, where numerous river crossings such as Rock Bluff Ferry and Browns Ferry provided critical transit points before the era of modern bridges.
