1965 Map of Malta

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Texas and Pacific railroad corridor anchors this survey of eastern Texas, cutting a path through a landscape of creek bottoms and small upland settlements. The small community of Malta is positioned directly along the rail line, while larger De Kalb sits at the northwestern edge of the sheet. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainage, including Red Bayou and Anderson Creek, which flow toward the southern edge of the quadrangle. Local landmarks such as Austin Chapel and the small settlement of Old Salem reflect the rural social fabric of Bowie County during the mid-1960s. To the south, College Hill and Simms mark the lower reaches of the map, where the geography transitions into the open expanse of Little Prairie. This map also documents infrastructure developments, including a prominent Pipeline and Sewage Disposal Ponds, illustrating the intersection of traditional agricultural land and modern utility expansion.
