2010 Map of Campbell

About this map

Campbell serves as the focal point for this 2010 survey of the Chaves County plains, where the landscape is defined by extensive ranching operations and water management infrastructure. Named properties such as Sterling Ranch and Graham Ranch anchor the local geography, connected by a network of rural routes including Ponderosa Rd and Mesilla Rd. The essential nature of water in this arid New Mexico environment is evident through the inclusion of functional landmarks like West Windmill, East Windmill, and the White Tank reservoir. To the northwest, the map marks the edge of High Lonesome, a traditional name reflecting the isolated character of the high desert terrain. This map provides researchers and genealogists with a modern record of land use and family-named landmarks in a region where cattle ranching remains the primary economic and social driver.
