1892 Map of Temple
USGS Topo · Published 1896About this map
The rail hubs of Temple and Belton anchor this late nineteenth-century portrait of Central Texas, where the infrastructure of the Gulf Colorado & Santa Fe Railway and the Missouri Kansas & Texas Railway intersected to drive regional growth. Surveyed in 1890, the landscape is defined by the transition from the rolling prairie to the river bottoms of the Brazos River and Leon River. Local transport is marked by significant river points like Ross Crossing and Moores Crossing, which predated the more permanent bridge structures of the coming century.
