1991 Map of Charlie

About this map

The settlement of Charlie serves as the focal point for this northern Texas landscape, situated near the meandering path of the Wichita River. This late-twentieth-century study reveals a rural economy heavily defined by resource extraction and water management, where numerous Oil Field labels and scattered oil wells dominate the southern and central sections of the quadrangle. The terrain rises to the north at Pumpkin Ridge, while the eastern portion is marked by the Petrolia Reservoirs and the drainage of Hay Creek. Local infrastructure is captured in detail, from a Water Tank and Storage Bin near the town center to a small Cem and a Gaging Sta along the riverbank. This map provides researchers with a clear view of the region's industrial footprint and hydrology, showing how petroleum production and water storage shaped the environment within Clay County.
