USGS Topo · Published 1970About this map
Kilgore sits at the heart of this East Texas survey, surrounded by the dense development of the regional oil boom era. The landscape is characterized by a high concentration of schools and churches, such as Laird Hill Sch and Mt Pleasant Ch, serving rural communities that grew rapidly alongside the petroleum industry. Settlements like Swamp City and Oil City speak directly to the extractive economy that reshaped the terrain between the Sabine River and the numerous tributaries like Rabbit Creek.
