1952 Map of Yabucoa
USGS Topo · Published 1953About this map
The agricultural Valle de Yabucoa dominates this 1952 landscape, where the sugar industry is evidenced by the presence of Central Roig and associated settlements like Colonia Laura and Batey Columbia. The survey captures the coastal southeastern corner of Puerto Rico before significant modern development, showing the transition from the high peaks of the Sierra de Panduras down to the Mar Caribe at Punta Tuna. Local education centers, including the Escuela C S Ridley and Escuela Segunda Unidad Palo Seco, serve as vital landmarks for genealogists tracing mid-century community life. The settlement patterns of Yabucoa and Maunabo are clearly delineated alongside the numerous watercourses, such as the Rio Guayanes and Rio Maunabo, which define the region's fertile topography.
