1951 Map of Slate Shoals

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

The Red River corridor north of Paris, Texas, defines the character of this mid-century survey, where the river channel serves as the Oklahoma-Texas boundary. The landscape is dotted with rural community anchors, particularly a high density of country churches and schools that reflect the local social fabric of the early 1950s. While Slate Shoals sits near the river bluffs, other small centers like Medill and Novice anchor the agricultural interior. The presence of the Pee Dee Sch (Abandoned) suggests a shift in rural education patterns by this era. Natural features like Womack Lake and the meandering Pine Creek break up the parcelled farmland, while numerous family-associated landmarks such as Reeds Chapel and Oak Hill Cem provide essential data for those tracing ancestral roots in northern Lamar County.
