1931 Map of Whitney

About this map

The Brazos River meanders through this portion of central Texas, forming the natural boundary between Hill Co and Bosque Co. During this era of the early 1930s, the landscape is defined by a dense network of local rural schools and river crossings that would later be transformed by water management projects. Notable river access points include Upper Woods Crossing, Lower Woods Crossing, and the Greenwade Bridge, which connect the agrarian communities of McCowan Valley and Walling Bend.
