1960 Map of Tolar

About this map

Tolar serves as the central hub of this North Texas landscape, situated at the intersection of local roads and the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe railroad. The surrounding terrain is defined by a series of significant watercourses, including Robinson Creek, Strouds Creek, and Squaw Creek, which carve through the countryside and influence the placement of early homesteads and communities. Evidence of early settlement is particularly dense, as seen through a high concentration of family and community burial grounds such as Martin Cem, Antioch Cem, and the Asbury Cemetery.
