1957 Map of Purmela

About this map

Purmela and South Purmela serve as the primary hubs for this rural Coryell County landscape, situated amidst a terrain defined by significant creek drainages and high points. The educational and community focus of the mid-20th century is evident at the Purmela Sch, while local family history is anchored at Smith Cem and King Cem. To the southeast, the small settlements of Arnett and King sit near the winding course of Cowhouse Creek, which is fed by numerous tributaries including Honey Creek and Bee Creek.
