1986 Map of Nacogdoches
USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
Nacogdoches serves as the central hub of this East Texas study, situated amidst a landscape of dense pine forests and winding bayous in the mid-1980s. The map illustrates a mature regional infrastructure, where the Southern Pacific and Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroads thread through timberlands between the Angelina River and the Sabine River. To the east, the vast waters of the Toledo Bend Reservoir dominate the borderlands, while the Angelina National Forest and Sabine National Forest preserve the natural character of the region. Local genealogy is well-represented through numerous rural landmarks, including the cluster of Sulphur Springs Ch, Sulphur Springs Sch, and Sulphur Springs Cem. These legacy sites, alongside smaller settlements like Martinsville, Chireno, and Appleby, reveal the distributed community patterns that defined the Piney Woods before further modern expansion.
