About this map

The settlement of Caddo serves as a central hub in this Stephens County landscape, which is defined by an active Oil Field and an extensive network of petroleum infrastructure. Numerous Oil Wells and a Pipeline cross the terrain, illustrating the region's industrial focus during the mid-to-late 20th century. To the south, the community of Frankell sits near an Old Railroad Grade, a reminder of the earlier transportation networks that once served the local economy.

Genealogists will find interest in localized landmarks such as Swenson Cem and Macedonia Cem, while the natural drainage system is marked by Caddo Creek, Ioni Creek, and T P Lake. The topography is varied, rising to heights at Yates Hill and falling toward the complex creek branches including Sow Branch and Oak Branch. This survey, updated in the early 1980s, documents the persistence of rural Texas communities amidst the infrastructure of the energy industry.
