USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
The railroad towns of East Texas are the focus of this mid-century survey, centered on the junction of the Texas and New Orleans (SP) and the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe at Timpson. This rail infrastructure drove the growth of nearby settlements like Tenaha and Garrison, while the rural landscape remained deeply connected to its local institutions. Numerous country churches and cemeteries, such as Todd Spring Ch, Mt Gideon Cem, and Weaver Cem, serve as landmarks for genealogists tracing family roots across Shelby, Rusk, and Nacogdoches Counties.
