1960 Map of Rhonesboro

About this map

Rhonesboro and the surrounding piney woods of East Texas are captured here during a period of transition in the early 1960s. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Little Cypress Creek and a dense network of tributaries like Hoys Mill Branch and Dinner Branch. Small rural communities and landmarks, such as Perryville, Ogburn, and the Little Hope Ch, anchor the local geography. Evidence of the region's transport history remains visible in the Old Railroad Grade cutting through the southern portion of the quadrangle.
