1953 Map of Guy

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The Southern Pacific and Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe railroads define the industrial movement across this portion of the Texas coastal plain during the early 1950s. Centered on the community of Guy, the landscape is a patchwork of agricultural infrastructure and energy extraction, specifically marked by the Needville Field and the prominent Damon Mound to the southeast. The survey captures a moment when local rural education was anchored by the Needville High Sch and the Routt Sch, while social life centered on the New Prospect Ch. Drainage patterns are dictated by the meandering Buffalo Creek and Mound Creek, which eventually feed into the San Bernard River at the county line. Of particular interest to transportation historians is the transition of infrastructure seen in the Old Railroad Grade and the Memorial Highway.
