1960 Map of Pine Forest

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Neches River winds through a landscape of dense bayous and sloughs on the edge of the Big Thicket National Preserve, where water defines the boundary between Orange and Jefferson counties. This 1960s-era geography captures the expansion of Vidor and the established rural settlements of Pine Forest and Lakeview. The presence of the Dorothy Oil Field and scattered Oil Wells across the eastern flats indicates the region's industrial ties to petroleum, while the Wiess Canal and an Old Railroad Grade trace the legacy of earlier water and timber transport.
