1943 Map of Cuba
USGS Topo · Published 1943About this map
Cuba and the surrounding high country of the Santa Fe National Forest are shown here as they appeared during the late 1930s and early 1940s. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition between the Mesa de Cuba and the eastern highlands of the San Pedro Peaks. Local life at this time centered around a network of rural schools and family-named landmarks, including the Rio Puerco Sch, La Jara Sch, and Vallecito Sch. The map documents a ranching and subsistence economy where small settlements like Gallina and Regina were linked by primitive roads and trails like the Puerco Trail. Genealogy researchers will find significant value in the distribution of ranching outposts such as Old Meatas Ranch and the V R Ranch, alongside the Capulin Cem near the northern boundary of the sheet.
