1961 Map of Young

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Young and the surrounding Freestone County countryside are documented here during a period of transition between traditional agricultural life and emerging energy extraction. The Stewards Mill Oil Field and a prominent Pipeline cutting through the southwest indicate the industrial footprint of the early 1960s, while numerous country churches like Round Prairie Ch and Mt Zion Ch remain the social anchors of the rural landscape. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainage systems including Tehuacana Creek, Big Brown Creek, and Oak Creek, which feed toward the Trinity River at the northeastern boundary near the Anderson Co line. For genealogists, the map preserves the exact locations of family-named landmarks such as Rehoboth Cem, Chancellor Cem, and Hodge Lodge, offering a precise spatial record of the community's mid-century settlement pattern.
