1916 Map of Huffman

About this map

Huffman serves as the central settlement in this early 20th-century survey of the Harris and Liberty County borderlands. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition between the flat coastal prairies and the intricate drainage networks of Luce Bayou and Cedar Bayou. These waterways cut deep, winding paths across the terrain, creating a complex series of ridges and ravines that contrast with the open country to the south. Transportation through this part of East Texas was anchored by the Beaumont Sour Lake and Western railroad, which provided a vital link for the local economy during a period of agricultural and timber development. The map meticulously records the elevation changes along the bayou breaks, offering a clear view of the natural topography before extensive modern drainage and suburban expansion altered the Harris County plains.
