1963 Map of Pluck

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Neches River forms a wide, meandering boundary in this portion of East Texas, defining a landscape marked by dense sloughs and seasonal waterways. Near the settlement of Pluck, the terrain is crisscrossed by an Old Railroad Grade, reflecting the importance of historical timber or freight transport through the bottomlands. The map reveals a transition from the river's wetland features like Cypress Lake and Lamar Slough to higher ground where family-named sites such as Grimes Cem and Stryker Cem are situated. Numerous drainage features like Piney Creek and Sulphur Creek suggest a highly saturated environment, where small local landmarks like Georges Prairie Pond and Harris Spring provide specific points of interest for local historians studying the rural settlement patterns of the mid-1960s.
