1952 Map of Manson

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The Navidad River and Lavaca River converge in this mid-century survey of Jackson County, carving a complex riparian landscape through the Texas coastal prairie. The settlement of Manson sits along the Southern Pacific tracks in the northwest, serving as a railroad point in an area increasingly defined by industrial expansion. The presence of the Texana Oil Field and numerous scattered Oil Wells indicate the era's energy boom, while an extensive network of Levees and a Spoil Bank reveal significant efforts to manage the low-lying terrain and river drainage.
