1961 Map of Sample

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad cuts a diagonal path through this South Texas landscape, anchoring the small settlement of Sample. Located on the border of Gonzales and DeWitt counties, the area is defined by a dense network of seasonal waterways like Shoats Creek and Rocky Creek that feed into the larger Sandies Creek system. The topography is marked by several low elevations, most notably Van Cleave Mound in the west, while the local economy is evidenced by multiple quarries and gravel pits scattered near the rail line.
