1958 Map of McMillan Mountains

About this map

The Fort Hood Military Reservation Bdy dominates this mid-century landscape on the border of Coryell and Bell counties. The transition from rural homesteading to military utility is evident, with the Emergency Landing Strip and various training grounds encroaching upon the rugged terrain of the McMillan Mountains and Sevenmile Mountain. Genealogy researchers will find significant interest in the scattered burial sites preserved within or near the reservation boundary, including Brown Cem and Mayberry Cem, as well as Calvary Ch to the southeast.
