1957 Map of McClanahan

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The small community of Mc Clanahan sits at a nexus of local transport and water systems in Falls County, where drainage is defined by a dense network of creeks including Sandy Creek, Little Sandy Creek, and Keechi Creek. The landscape in the mid-20th century was a working rural environment, characterized by significant water management infrastructure like the Levee and Spillway systems serving Marlin City Lake and New City Lake. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies several rural houses of worship and burial grounds, such as Marvin Allen Ch, Springhill Ch, and Taylor Chapel Cem. The presence of a Railroad Grade and two distinct landing strips, Marlin Airfield and Stephens Airfield, illustrates the transition between older rail-dependent economies and the burgeoning aviation and pipeline infrastructure of the era, while Bald Hill provides a prominent natural landmark overlooking Elm Creek.
