1963 Map of Loma

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The West Fork San Jacinto River winds through this rural landscape in southeastern Texas, creating a complex network of drainage that includes Salty Creek, Sulphur Creek, and the West Sandy Creek. Centered on the settlement of Loma, the map reveals a rural community supported by local institutions such as Hopewell Sch, Faces Chapel, and Wesley Grove Ch. The presence of several family and community burial grounds, including Mc Cowan Cem, Mustang Cem, and Brushy Cem, provides valuable points of reference for genealogists tracing local families in this corner of Walker County near the Grimes and Montgomery county lines. The landscape is a mix of wooded areas and cleared lands, with infrastructure like a Pumping Sta, a Landing Strip, and a Flowing Well indicating the area's agricultural and industrial utility in the early 1960s.
