1956 Map of Spring Creek Gap

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The North Bosque River defines the drainage pattern of this Central Texas landscape along the border of Bosque and Hamilton counties. In the mid-1950s, the area remained largely rural, characterized by small family-named sites such as Stanley Graves and several local burial grounds including Barbee Cem and Proffitt Cem. A significant historical remnant is the Old Railroad Grade that cuts across the western portion of the sheet, indicating a shift in the local transportation network by the time of the original survey. The terrain is marked by significant hydrological features like Duffau Creek and Fall Creek, while the prominent Spring Creek Gap serves as a natural corridor in the eastern section. This 1979 edition preserves 1950s data with later woodland revisions, capturing a moment when gravel extraction near the river was a notable industrial activity.
