1959 Map of Lancaster

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Lancaster and De Soto anchors this detailed survey of southern Dallas County and northern Ellis County, captured just as suburban development began to reshape the rural Texas landscape. The map illustrates a transitional period where established town centers like Red Oak and Woodland Hills are increasingly connected by improved thoroughfares such as Belt Line Road and Parkerville Road. The underlying agricultural character remains visible in the numerous small congregations and family landmarks scattered throughout the creek bottoms, including Barkley City Chapel, Meadow Ch, and the Rawlins Cem.
