1924 Map of Temple 3-C

USGS Topo · Published 1924

About this map

The confluence of the Leon River, Lampasas River, and Salado Creek defines the landscape surrounding Belton during this 1920s survey. This period of Bell County history shows a transition from rural river valleys to a burgeoning transportation hub, where the Meridian Highway and Texas Belton and Georgetown Road intersect with vital rail corridors like the Missouri Kansas and Texas. Outside the primary settlements of Belton and Hyde, the map documents a network of community anchors including the Three Forks School, Tennessee Valley Church, and the State Agricultural Experiment Station. The topography reveals the dramatic relief of Dog Ridge overlooking Nolan Creek, illustrating how early agricultural patterns followed the fertile contours of Taylor Valley and Tennessee Valley before modern regional development altered the local hydrology.
