1965 Map of Lingleville

About this map

Lingleville serves as the primary settlement in this mid-1960s topographic survey, which documents a landscape of agriculture and intermittent industry along the Erath and Comanche county line. The terrain is defined by the drainage of the Leon River and Armstrong Creek, with numerous earth-fill dams such as Dam No 5 and Dam No 11 managing local water resources. Significant for local historians is the depiction of the Old Railroad Grade cutting across the countryside, marking the path of a former rail corridor that once linked these rural communities.
