1964 Map of Hagansport

About this map

Hagansport serves as the focal point of this rural Franklin County landscape, situated just south of the Sulphur River at the junction of State Highway 37. The mid-century development of the Talco Oil Field is a dominant industrial feature, with its network of wells and infrastructure cutting through the wooded bottomlands and creek valleys. This survey documents a high density of small rural burial grounds and community markers, including the Hagansport Cem, Prairie Academy Cem, and Midway Ch Cem, which point to a long-established pattern of dispersed family farms and localized church communities. The terrain is deeply defined by the winding course of White Oak Creek and its many tributaries, such as Cobb Jones Creek and Campbell Creek, which shape the drainage patterns and historical settlement boundaries throughout the quadrangle.
