1955 Map of Saratoga

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Saratoga Oil Field and Batson Oil Field anchor this mid-1950s survey of the Big Thicket region, showing the industrial infrastructure of southeast Texas at mid-century. While oil derricks and tanks dominate the areas near Saratoga and Batson, the landscape is defined by a complex network of wetlands and drainage. Names like Jayhawker Baygall and Bass Baygall point to the local ecology of acid bogs, while Dunnie Burnout and Old Hat Burnout suggest the historical impact of fire on these dense woodlands.
