1919 Map of Giddings
USGS Topo · Published 1919About this map
Giddings P.O. serves as the central hub of this 1919 military survey, where the Houston and Texas Central Railroad intersects with the San Antonio and Aransas Pass Railway. This era of Texas history is defined by a dense network of rural post offices and small settlements such as Northrup P.O., Warda P.O., and the Lutheran community at Serbin. The landscape is etched with the drainage patterns of Rabbs Creek and Nails Creek, while industrial activity is noted at the Kruse Quarry near Cummins. Beyond the main rail lines, the map identifies numerous school houses, simply labeled S.H., and early landmarks like the Willy Branch School, providing a detailed view of the social and economic infrastructure in Lee and Fayette Counties before the modern highway system reshaped the region.
