1949 Map of Keltys

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The timber and transit landscape of Angelina County comes into focus on this 1949 survey, centered on the community of Keltys. Situated just northwest of Lufkin, this area was a hub of rail activity where the St Louis Southwestern RR and the Texas South-Eastern RR converge. The rural character of the era is preserved through numerous family-named landmarks and institutions, such as the Mabel Melear Sch and the Agricultural Experiment Station. To the west, the map details the terrain around Walker Lake and the winding course of Largent Creek. Small settlements and social centers are frequent, including Providence, Peavy, and Granville, alongside several country houses of worship like Bethlehem Ch and New Hope Ch. The document also captures 1980s updates in purple, showing the expansion of residential and commercial development near the Lufkin corporate boundary.
