1959 Map of Powell

About this map

The Corsicana Oil Field dominates this central Navarro County landscape, where pump jacks and drill sites share the rolling plains with traditional cattle ranching. In the late 1950s, the community of Powell served as a key hub along the St Louis Southwestern railroad, supported by nearby rural settlements like Elm Flat and Eureka. To the northwest, the waters of Lake Corsicana are held back by a prominent Spillway, providing recreation at Camp Wanica and a steady water supply for the region.
