1955 Map of Woodville

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Southern Pacific rail line serves as the central artery through the East Texas piney woods in the mid-1950s, connecting the lumber-rich corridor of Woodville, Doucette, and Colmesneil. This landscape is deeply etched by a network of family-named creeks and branches, including Theunissen Creek, Pamplin Creek, and Drunkards Creek, which defined the boundaries of rural life. Beyond the larger towns, the map reveals a decentralized community structure anchored by small country churches and family burial grounds like Egypt Ch, Antioch Cem, and Moss Hill Cem.
