About this map

The Angelina River meanders across the East Texas landscape, forming a natural boundary between Nacogdoches and Angelina Counties. This area was undergoing significant hydrological changes at the time of this survey, with the Sam Rayburn Reservoir and Kurth Lake altering the traditional drainage patterns of creeks like Paper Mill Creek and Mill Creek. A network of infrastructure, including an Aqueduct and the Lufkin Water Plant, underscores the region's industrial and municipal development during the mid-20th century.
