1920 Map of Rose Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1920

About this map

Rose Hill serves as the focal point of this Harris County landscape, surveyed in cooperation with county officials including Judge W.H. Ward. The area is defined by a dense network of early rural schools, such as Rose Hill School, Bowers School, and Neidorff School, reflecting a settled agricultural community before the rapid suburban expansion of the later century. The terrain transitions from the well-defined drainage of Spring Creek along the northern Montgomery Co Harris Co boundary to the broad, level expanse of Willow Flats. Further south, Little Cypress Creek meanders through the territory near Cypress Church and the Winckler School. This 1920 edition also indicates the early transportation routes of the region, specifically Hockley Road and Cypress Road, which connected these disparate farmsteads and school districts.
