1967 Map of Bead Mountian

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Valera sits at the northern edge of this Coleman County landscape, where the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line parallels the highway. The terrain is defined by a dense network of intermittent waterways, including Elm Creek, Panther Creek, and Little Panther Creek, many of which feature numerous spillways and areas subject to controlled inundation. This mid-century survey reveals a rural landscape transitioning toward industrial activity, evidenced by the proliferation of Gas Wells, Oil Wells, and multiple Gravel Pit locations scattered across the ranch land. The prominence of Bead Mountain provides a significant local landmark amidst the drainage basins. Cultural markers like Valera Cem and Voss Cem offer essential points of reference for genealogists tracking family histories in this part of Texas, while the presence of various Pipeline routes underscores the region's role in energy transport during the late 1960s.
