1985 Map of Ayers Island

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Red River and the Salt Fork Red River define this stretch of the Texas-Oklahoma border, winding through a landscape shaped by both natural drainage and industrial activity. Near the western edge, the Creta Mine and its associated tailings and ponds represent the area's mineral extraction history, while the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad tracks cut across the southeastern corner. Local genealogy is grounded in sites like Carmel Cem and Boggy Cem, which serve as quiet markers of the community alongside the agricultural infrastructure of scattered Storage Bins. The eponymous Ayers Island sits in a wide bend of the river, highlighting the shifting river boundaries between Jackson and Wilbarger counties.
