1963 Map of Sharp

About this map

Buckholts stands at the northern edge of this Milam County landscape, where the GC & SF railroad cuts through the terrain. The area is defined by the winding course of the Little River, which creates a complex hydrology of oxbows and secondary channels like Cutoff Slough. This mid-century survey reveals a rural society organized around small community hubs, evidenced by numerous country churches such as Liveoak Ch and Friendship Ch, and the Hall Sch. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, including the Bryant Station Cem and Lewis Cem. The map also documents localized industrial and infrastructure markers, from the numerous Gravel Pits to the Landing Strip and the historic Cummins Crossing, offering a clear view of the Texas interior before modern consolidation changed the rural character.
