1961 Map of Harleton

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The northern reaches of Harrison County are defined by the recently established shoreline of Lake O' the Pines, which stretches across the upper margin of the map following its 1958 inundation. This rural landscape is anchored by Harleton, where a local Refinery and a network of secondary roads suggest a mid-century economy balancing small-town life with industrial activity. The area is heavily marked by its spiritual and genealogical heritage, featuring numerous country congregations and burying grounds such as Macedonia Ch and the adjacent Macedonia Cem. To the south, the terrain descends toward the meandering Little Cypress Bayou and Moccasin Creek, which drain the wooded hills. The map captures a moment when the new reservoir had just begun to transform the local geography, creating recreational zones like the West Abutment Recreational Area near the Marion and Harrison County line.
