1965 Map of Swiss Alp

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Swiss Alp and the surrounding Fayette County countryside are captured here in a period of rural stability, characterized by small farming communities and a network of named creek branches. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the East Navidad River and West Navidad River, which drain the rolling terrain north of Freyburg. Local life centers around long-standing landmarks like Trinity Ch and the Philadelphia Ch, while numerous family-named burial grounds including Williams Creek Cem and Kaase Cem provide significant touchpoints for genealogical research. The presence of Roadside Park near Hostyn and numerous Gravel Pits suggests the modest local infrastructure of the mid-1960s. This survey, updated with 1978 aerial data, shows a well-established system of fence lines and unimproved roads connecting small farmsteads and water sources like Lake El-Leo, reflecting the traditional agrarian settlement pattern of this part of Texas.
