1967 Map of Glen Rose East

About this map

The Brazos River carves a sweeping path through the heart of the Somervell and Bosque county borderlands, defining the landscape of this 1967 survey. The settlement of Glen Rose sits at the confluence of the Brazos and the Paluxy River, serving as a focal point for local development alongside Glen Lake Camp. Away from the riverbanks, the terrain rises toward the Seven Knobs in the southwest, while small rural landmarks like White Ch and the community of Eulogy anchor the surrounding countryside. This map records a rural Texas landscape during a period of transition, where established river-valley agriculture and small-town life met emerging infrastructure, evidenced by the Pipeline crossing the northern hills and the network of gravel pits supporting local industry. The intricate drainage patterns of Squaw Cr and Hill Creek illustrate the complex watershed that has long shaped the region's ranching and settlement history.
