1955 Map of Texas

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Lake Ontario defines the northern reaches of this coastal survey, where the waters of Mexico Bay meet a shoreline dotted with small summer communities and historic landmarks. The settlement of Texas sits inland near the Little Salmon River, while the lakefront is characterized by seasonal clusters like Demster Beach, Hickory Grove, and Shore Oaks. This mid-century landscape reflects a shift toward recreational use of the shore, anchored by the Spy Island Historical Site at Mexico Pt. Inland, the terrain is divided between the townships of Scriba, New Haven, and Mexico, with rural life organized along North Road and Catfish Road. Smaller watercourses like Catfish Creek and Butterfly Creek drain into the bay, cutting through the low-lying Butterfly Swamp before reaching the lake.
