1959 Map of Montgomery

About this map

Montgomery serves as the focal point of this Montgomery County survey, which documents the landscape as it transitioned with the creation of Lake Conroe. The map illustrates a community anchored by several rural churches and educational sites, including China Chapel, Lincoln Sch, and Mt Pleasant Ch. An Old Railroad Grade north of Little Lake Creek provides a tangible link to former industrial transport lines, while more contemporary infrastructure like a Pipeline and several man-made lakes, such as Stanley Lake and Stewart Lake, indicate shifting land use in the mid-20th century.
