1963 Map of Yarrelton

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The small rural communities of Yarrelton and Marak anchor this agricultural landscape in central Texas during the early 1960s. Located along the junction of several farm-to-market roads, these settlements reflect a mid-century pattern of tight-knit rural life centered around local institutions like the Community Hall and the Cem near North Elm. The terrain is defined by a dendritic network of waterways, including Big Elm Creek and South Elm Creek, which meander through the southern half of the quadrangle toward Buckholts. An interesting navigational detail is the Landing Field located near the northern bend of Big Elm Creek, suggesting a period of increasing local aviation for crop dusting or private travel. Surveyed just before significant modern development, the map also captures the Indefinite Boundary between Bell and Milam counties, along with the precise locations of a Gaging Sta and various rural homesteads connected by a web of light-duty and unimproved dirt roads.
