1961 Map of Moonshine Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The confluence of the West Fork San Jacinto River and its East Fork marks a transition in the Texas landscape just before the completion of major reservoir projects. In this early 1960s study, the area is defined by the industrial activity of the Riverside Field and the eponymous Moonshine Hill, where oil wells and pipelines crisscross the terrain. Small residential developments like Timberlane Acres, Dogwood Acres, and Woody Acres signal the post-war suburban expansion moving north from Houston into the wooded areas of Harris and Montgomery counties.
