1962 Map of Raisin

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Coleto Creek meanders through this landscape, joining the Guadalupe River amidst a complex network of oxbows and bottomlands including McDonald Lake, Adler Lake, and Shell and Trigger Lake. In the northwest, the settlement of Raisin sits along the Southern Pacific railroad line, while the southern reaches feature the Kemper City Sch and the expansive Terrell Ranch. The interplay between the river system and early land use is evident in the concentration of family landmarks like the McDonald Cem and the Reeves Cem. Further inland, the presence of an Indian Mound near Samson Bayou and the Stubbs Sch reflect a long history of occupation near these critical water sources. The map also documents the mid-century industrial footprint with numerous gas wells and an Oil Field established north of the creek.
