1966 Map of Owens

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Owens and the developing outskirts of Early anchor this mid-1960s survey of Brown County, Texas. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Pecan Bayou and its numerous tributaries, including Elm Creek and Delaware Creek. Transportation history is visible through the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad route and an Old Railroad Grade that cuts through the center of the sheet near Brownwood Municipal Airport. For genealogists and local historians, the map identifies several rural landmarks and family-named burial grounds, such as Heflin Cem, Staley Cem, and Jones Chapel Cem. Industrial activity is marked by various resource sites, including a Sandpit, Claypit, and scattered Gas Wells, reflecting the regional economy prior to late-century suburban expansion.
