2019 Map of Blackwell

About this map

Blackwell sits at the junction of the Coke and Nolan county line, serving as the primary hub for this West Texas landscape. The most prominent feature is the Oak Creek Reservoir, a large body of water defined by numerous geographic landmarks like Gulf Peninsula, Humble Neck, and Bonner Point. To the south, the historic site of Fort Chadbourne remains a focal point of the region's heritage, flanked by Middle Kickapoo Cr. Genealogists and local historians can locate several burial grounds including Blackwell Cem, Ross Cem, and Fort Chadbourne Cem. The terrain is characterized by various drainage systems such as Bouzier Cr and Ross Cr, alongside prominent elevations like Wiley Bluff. This survey illustrates the relationship between these water resources and the established ranch roads that connect the dispersed rural landmarks.
