1960 Map of Roustabout Camp

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Industrial activity and river bottom dynamics define this 1960 landscape where the Trinity River and Richland Creek converge. The presence of Roustabout Camp, Big Camp, and Amerada Camp reflects the region’s petroleum history, with these specialized settlements situated near the sprawling river bends and active sludge pits. In the bottomlands, complex drainage patterns are marked by numerous oxbow remnants and wetlands such as Enloe Slough, Snag Lake, and Long Lake. The terrain rises toward the south and west at Walker Bluff and Allen Bluff, overlooking the low-lying Tehuacana Creek basin. Local social life is anchored by Harp Ch in the west, while specialized land use is evident at the Fish Hatcheries near the river. This survey captures a specific era of resource extraction and flood-plain geography before modern topographical shifts altered the character of these Freestone and Anderson County borderlands.
