1962 Map of Myrtle Springs

About this map

Myrtle Springs and the northern edge of Canton anchor this 1962 Van Zandt County survey, which was later updated in the early 1980s to reflect changes in woodland and infrastructure. The landscape is defined by the complex drainage of the Lacy Fork and its numerous tributaries, including Dry Fork, Wet Lacy Fork, and Coppers Branch. These waterways weave through a rural network of family-named roads like Hayden Road and Dewberry Lane, suggesting a landscape of long-standing family landholdings and small-scale agriculture.
