1965 Map of South Bosque

About this map

The Middle Bosque River and South Bosque River converge in this central Texas landscape, where the growing suburbs of Woodway meet rural McLennan County during the mid-1960s. The terrain is defined by the winding drainages of Harris Creek, Willow Creek, and North Cow Bayou, interspersed with gravel pits and quarries that point to the area's geological utility. The St Louis Southwestern railroad cuts a straight line across the north, passing just south of the McGregor Municipal Airfield. Significant for genealogists are localized landmarks like the Horne Cem and the Harris Creek Ch, alongside small settlements such as Spring Valley and Val Verde Camp. Water management is a visible priority, with several mapped spillways and the southern reaches of Lake Waco appearing in the northeast corner.
