1960 Map of Green Valley

About this map

The Elm Fork Trinity River winds through the heart of Denton County, where the transition from riverine bottomlands to the expanding Garza-Little Elm Reservoir defines the landscape. The northern reaches of the reservoir are clearly documented, showing the inundation patterns near Isle du Bois Creek and Clear Creek. Settlement patterns are concentrated around Green Valley and Aubrey, with rural life anchored by the Rock Hill Ch and Davis Cem. Transportation infrastructure is a primary feature, notably the Texas and Pacific railroad line and the Hartlee Airstrip. Several Gravel Pits along the river suggest an active local extraction industry, while family-named landmarks like Harmony Ranch provide valuable context for genealogical research in this part of North Texas.
