1956 Map of Armstrong

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Missouri Pacific railroad corridor anchors this survey of Kenedy County, serving as the industrial spine for isolated outposts like Armstrong and Norias. This is a landscape defined by large-scale ranching and mineral extraction, where the Armstrong Ranch Headquarters and smaller sites like Pita Camp and Ball Ranch managed the arid terrain. The map captures a transition in land use as traditional ranching was increasingly accompanied by resource exploration, evidenced by numerous Oil Wells and Caliche Pits scattered across the brushland.
