1956 Map of Jewett
USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
Railroad development and the early regional coal economy define the landscape around Jewett during the early twentieth century. This survey, compiled from railroad alignments and county road maps, highlights the convergence of the International and Great Northern Railway, the Houston and Texas Central Railroad, and the Texas and New Orleans Railroad. These lines facilitated the movement of resources through small hubs like Jewett Sta. and spurred industrial offshoots such as the Evansville Coal Spur and the Trinity and Brazos Valley Railway (Bear Grass Spur).
