1971 Map of Hockley Mound

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Hockley Mound rises above the surrounding landscape in Waller County, a prominent geological landmark on a sheet defined by a network of drainage creeks and ranching roads. In the early 1970s, this area north of the Katy Oil and Gas Field remained largely rural, anchored by agricultural thoroughfares such as Monaville Road and Davis Road. Small family burial grounds, including the Frey Cem and Warwarofsky Cem, are preserved among the fields, providing vital evidence of the early settler families who established these homesteads. The emergence of modern aviation is marked by the Sky Lakes Airport near a local Golf Course, showing the transition from traditional land use toward recreational and industrial expansion, particularly near the Waller Co Harris Co line where numerous Gas Wells are indicated.
