1959 Map of Lancaster
USGS Topo · Published 1987About this map
Tenmile Creek and its many tributaries, including Heath Creek and Bear Creek, carve a drainage pattern across this landscape during a period of significant suburban expansion in southern Dallas County. The 1978-1981 purple-tinted revisions illustrate the rapid growth of Lancaster and De Soto, as residential footprints began to encroach upon established rural landmarks. Despite the encroaching development, several small settlements and community hubs like Parkerville and Elva remain visible, alongside numerous local places of worship such as Wintergreen Missionary Ch and St Martins Ch.
