1961 Map of Stephenville
USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
Stephenville serves as the focal point of this 1961 record, showing the community just as it was evolving around its educational and agricultural institutions. The presence of Tarleton State College and the Tarleton State College Farm highlights the town's identity as a center for higher learning and agricultural research, supported further by the Texas A & M College Substation No 20 to the north. The landscape is defined by the convergence of the North Bosque River and Alarm Creek, with the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe railroad bisecting the town. Genealogists will find an exceptional density of burial sites including Mt Olive Cem, East Memorial Cem, and Johnson Cem. An Old Railroad Grade stretching south from the city limits offers a glimpse into earlier transportation corridors before the expansion of the Stephenville Municipal Airport.
