1952 Map of China Grove

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

China Grove and the surrounding high plains of West Texas are depicted here shortly after the mid-century, reflecting a landscape defined by ranching and early petroleum infrastructure. The rural character of the region is punctuated by the presence of China Grove Sch and German Sch, indicating the historical community centers of this sparsely populated area. Water management and livestock operations are evident through the numerous Windmill labels scattered across the terrain near Sulphur Creek and Wildcat Draw. The local economy's shift is marked by the Roscoe Snyder and Pacific railroad in the northeast corner and clusters of Oil Storage Tanks and a Radio Tower, showing the technical expansion into Scurry and Mitchell counties during the 1950s.
