About this map

The Neches River winds through this 1928 survey, defining the boundaries where Angelina, Jasper, and Tyler counties meet. The landscape is heavily marked by the region's timber industry, featuring a network of rail lines including the Southern Pacific and the Beaumont Lufkin and Northern Railway (Abandoned). These industrial arteries supported settlements like Nancy, Dolan, and the logging outpost at Wilson Camp. Along the river's edge, the Rockland Ferry provided a vital crossing near the town of Rockland, while local education was centered at rural landmarks like Sulphur Spring Sch and Johnson Sch. The intricate topography around Bess Bend and The Big Bluff reveals the challenging terrain that dictated the paths of numerous creeks like Turpentine Creek and Cypress Creek. This map captures a transition as older Timber RR (Abandoned) spurs were already being left behind for new transportation routes.
