1963 Map of Charco

About this map

The San Antonio River carves a deep, winding path through this corner of Goliad County, defining a landscape of riparian woodland and active energy extraction in the early 1960s. The settlement of Charco and the nearby Angel City serve as anchors for a region where cattle ranching and the oil industry overlap, evidenced by the numerous Drill Holes and Gas Wells scattered across the Cabeza Creek Oil Field and Charco Southeast Gas Field. For family historians, the presence of the John Pettus Cem, Lost Pettus Cem, and San Jacinto Cem provides significant genealogical reference points near the riverbanks.
