1965 Map of Kosse West

About this map

Agricultural lands and creek drainages define this mid-1960s landscape along the Limestone Co Falls Co border. Small settlements like Stranger and Alto Springs anchor the rural landscape, which is marked by a network of local roads such as Broadway Road and Harvey Road. The eastern edge of the quadrangle is defined by the Southern Pacific railroad corridor, running north through Kosse and past the small community of Mustang. This area shows a high density of local landmarks significant to genealogists, including Antioch Cem and Garrett Cem. Waterways such as the Little Brazos River and Polecat Creek wind through the terrain, while industrial activity is noted at several Quarries and a Drill Hole. The presence of several churches, including St Paul Ch and New Hope Ch, suggests the social centers of these outlying communities during the mid-century era.
