1962 Map of Keenan

About this map

The Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe railroad cuts through the center of this Montgomery County landscape, anchoring a network of small family cemeteries and rural congregations in the early 1960s. The map reveals a transition between timbered tracts and specialized agriculture, evidenced by several Gravel Pits and the winding course of Lake Creek in the southern half. Small settlements like Keenan and Karen appear as quiet rail stops, while the presence of family-named landmarks such as Rabon Cartwright Cem and Yell Cem provides significant data for genealogical research. Water management and recreation are visible through features like Lake Seventyseven and Johnson Lake, which sit amidst the rolling terrain of the San Jacinto River Authority's jurisdiction. The interplay of the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific line and the Keenan Cutoff road illustrates the area's mid-century transportation patterns.
