1955 Map of Pilot Knob

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Pilot Knob serves as a central landmark in this mid-1950s study of central Texas terrain. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Cedron Creek and Toms Branch, which cut through the hills of Bosque County. Local history and genealogy are anchored by the Cedron Cem and the small settlement at Oswald, providing specific points of reference for family researchers. The southwestern corner of the quadrangle is marked by the Bosque River, where the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe (AT & SF) railroad runs parallel to its course, highlighting the historical transportation corridor of the region. This survey captures the rural character of the area just as State Route 22 was established as the primary automotive artery through the hills.
