About this map

Huffman and Bradford serve as the primary focal points of this 1916 survey, illustrating the early development of northeastern Harris County before the regional landscape was significantly altered by modern infrastructure. The Beaumont Sour Lake and Western railroad cuts across the southern portion of the sheet, providing a vital industrial link between the settlements. This transportation corridor is closely tied to the natural drainage systems of the area, including Luce Bayou and Cedar Bayou, which define the low-lying terrain. To the west, the East Fork San Jacinto River and features like Red Gully characterize the hydrologic network of the coastal plain. The presence of Moonshine Hill on the western margin suggests the proximity of the era's significant oil industry, while the rest of the quadrangle remains dominated by the intersection of rail and water.
