1964 Map of Halls Bluff

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Trinity River snakes through the borderlands of Leon and Houston counties in this mid-1960s survey, defining a landscape of sharp bluffs and low-lying oxbow lakes. Settlements such as Halls Bluff and Brookfield Bluff occupy the high ground overlooking the river's winding path, while the interior is marked by local landmarks like Malvern and Wheeler Springs. The topography is heavily influenced by the river's dynamic flow, featuring the Kickapoo Rapids and the pronounced Big Bend meander. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of rural community centers like Union Prairie Ch and local burial grounds including Smith Cem and Porter Springs Cem. Water features dominate the lowlands, with names like Tubb Lake, Horseshoe Lake, and Busch Slough suggesting a seasonal and flood-prone terrain surrounding the main channel.
