1958 Map of Hemphill
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
Hemphill serves as the focal point of this east Texas landscape, situated between the Sabine National Forest and the rising waters of the Toledo Bend Reservoir. The map documents a period of significant transition for the region, showing the newly revised woodland boundaries within the reservoir area alongside the historic trace of El Camino Real. Deep in the timberlands, the Austin College Forestry Camp and the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railway underscore the importance of the local forest products industry, further evidenced by an Old Railroad Grade and features like Turpentine Spring. Genealogy and local history are well-represented by numerous family landmarks and rural institutions, including the McMahan Chapel (Historical Marker), Gravel Hill Cem, and the timber-centric community of East Mayfield.
