1959 Map of Hamon

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The winding Guadalupe River dominates this mid-century landscape in Gonzales County, where the settlement of Hamon is captured alongside its predecessor, the Hamon (Original Townsite). This shift in the local center is anchored by the Hamon Ch and surrounded by a network of ranchlands and watercourses including Peach Creek and Turkey Bottom Creek. The map illustrates a rural Texas economy transitioning through the late 1950s, evidenced by the presence of industrial Clay Pits, a Quarry, and a major Pipeline cutting across the terrain north of Abercrombie Ranch. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet preserves the locations of family-named landmarks and small cemeteries that define the character of the river valley before modern development altered the agricultural footprint of the region.
