1960 Map of Newsome

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Louisiana & Arkansas (KCS) railroad tracks cut a diagonal path across this northeast Texas landscape, connecting small farming and industrial outposts at the dawn of the 1960s. The settlement of Newsome serves as a focal point near the Newsome Oil Field, while the surrounding Wood and Franklin County countryside is dotted with rural centers like Scroggins, Musgrove, and Westbrook. This period of documentation shows a transition from traditional agricultural life to a petroleum-influenced economy, evidenced by the scattered Gravel Pits and industrial activity near the rail line.
