1959 Map of San Jacinto

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Sam Houston National Forest dominates this 1950s landscape, where the West Fork San Jacinto River and West Sandy Creek converge amidst a dense network of timber and drainage. The settlement pattern is characterized by dispersed community anchors such as Parris Chapel, Ebenezer Ch, and the Little Zion Sch, reflecting the rural social geography of Walker and Montgomery Counties before modern development. Notable landmarks like the Pool Lookout tower and an Artesian Well near the Stubblefield Lake Campground indicate the intersection of resource management and early outdoor recreation. The map also documents local family history through sites like Lee Cem and Farris Cem, while a lone Oil Well near Little Lake Creek hints at the burgeoning industrial reach into the piney woods.
