1960 Map of Tool

About this map

The Trinity River and its meandering bottomlands define the southwest corner of this East Texas survey, where the river serves as the boundary between Henderson and Navarro Counties. Northward, the landscape transitions into a network of small agricultural settlements and rural infrastructure centered around Cedar Creek and its tributaries like Prairie Creek and Lacey Fork. The community of Tool sits near the center of the map, surrounded by early-1960s rural landmarks including Providence and Aley.
