1964 Map of Victoria West

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Guadalupe River meanders through this portion of Victoria County, shaping the landscape with dramatic oxbows and bends such as Powers Bend, Grovers Bend, and Foxes Bend. During the mid-1960s, the western edge of Victoria shows a transition from urban development to a resource-rich periphery dominated by the Victoria Oil Field and numerous gravel pits. This intersection of industrial utility and civic space is evident in the proximity of the Municipal Park Riverside Golf Course to local extraction sites. Notable local infrastructure includes the Southern Pacific railroad line passing through the small community of Aloe, and various rural landmarks such as Goldmans Hill and Pleasure Island. Several legacy sites like St Josephs Cem, Catholic Cem, and the Hope Development Sch provide specific points of interest for those researching local family history and community growth during this era.
