1962 Map of Maysfield

About this map

The Brazos River defines the eastern boundary of this Milam County landscape, winding through a patchwork of agricultural fields and rolling prairie. The settlement pattern reflects a deeply rooted rural community, anchored by the town of Maysfield and the smaller hub of Branchville. A notable concentration of community landmarks, such as the Maysfield Sch and Harlin Chapel, underscores the social fabric of the era. The land is dissected by numerous waterways including Hart Creek and String Prairie Branch, which historically dictated the placement of early homesteads.
