1950 Map of Kennard NE

About this map

The Neches River winds through the heart of the East Texas piney woods in this mid-century survey, defining the boundaries of Crockett National Forest and the county lines for Houston, Cherokee, and Angelina. The landscape is deeply tied to the timber industry of the era, marked by an extensive Logging Railroad network and an Old Railroad Grade that cut through the dense forest. Small rural communities are anchored by landmarks like Sweet Union Ch, Mount Vernon Ch, and the Wells Sch. Along the riverbanks, topographic details reveal the prominence of Shooks Bluff and its namesake Shooks Bluff Cem, providing valuable location data for genealogists. Waterways such as Larrison Creek and Sandy Creek feed into the Neches, while the presence of the Malibu Club suggests the recreational use of the region's natural resources.
