USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
Alvord serves as the central hub of this North Texas landscape, where the Fort Worth and Denver railroad cuts a diagonal line through the countryside. The 1961 environment is defined by a dense network of petroleum exploration, with the Caughlin Oil Field, Alvord Southeast Oil Field, and Boonsville Oil Field blanketing the terrain. Numerous gas and oil wells are scattered between the drainages of Sandy Creek and Briar Creek, illustrating the intense industrial footprint of the era.
