1968 Map of Rossville

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Rossville and the surrounding Atascosa County countryside appear here as a landscape defined by small rural settlements and a remarkably dense network of family and community burial grounds. The Atascosa River and its various tributaries, including Aqua Negra Creek and Siestedero Creek, provide the primary geographic structure for the region. The map reveals the late 1960s footprint of several modest communities like Anchorage, Iuka, and Amphion, connected by ranch roads and the occasional utility Pipeline. Genealogists will find particular value in the numerous plotted cemeteries such as Brite Cem, Garcia Cem, and Flores Cem, which reflect the localized history of the area's early residents and ranching families. The presence of multiple Gravel Pit sites near Rossville indicates the local industrial activity focused on the terrain's natural resources during this era.
