1952 Map of Slocum

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The rolling timberlands of East Texas are anchored here by Slocum and Augusta, where a network of family-named creeks like Ioni Creek and San Pedro Creek drains toward the Neches River. The landscape in the early 1950s shows a transition between traditional agriculture and the growing energy industry, with scattered Oil Wells appearing near the Southern Pacific rail line at Grapeland. This region is deeply rooted in communal life, evidenced by the numerous rural churches and burial grounds that serve as landmarks, such as Livelyville Ch (Cem) and Union Hope Sch & Cem.
