2010 Map of Booker

About this map

Booker serves as the focal point of this northern Panhandle landscape, where the grid-based settlement of Lipscomb County meets the open ranch and farmland of the Texas-Oklahoma border. The town is oriented around the former rail corridor, now reflected in local street names like W Santa Fe Ln. Evidence of the area's agricultural and civil development is scattered across the township and its outskirts, from the Booker Airport to the historic Old Darrouzett Hwy. Outside of the primary settlement, the terrain is defined by the winding paths of Duck Pond Creek in the north and Kiowa Creek in the south. These watercourses provide a natural counterpoint to the rigid network of county roads. Genealogists will find interest in the documented locations of Heart Cemetery and Kiowa Cemetery, which sit as enduring markers of the early families who settled this high plains region.
