About this map

The oil and gas industry of coastal Texas defines the landscape of this quadrangle, where the Minnie Bock Oil Field, North Clara Driscoll Oil Field, and Clara Driscoll Oil Field sit amidst a grid of rural county roads. This network connects small settlements and specialized sites such as the Florida Gas Camp and Gandy Farms, showing the intersection of energy extraction and agricultural land use in the region southwest of Robstown.

The meandering path of Petronila Creek provides a natural contrast to the geometric road system, flowing past the Flinn Cemetery. The map also identifies the Coastal Bend Youth City near the town of Driscoll, along with the small community of Petronila on the eastern edge. For genealogists and local historians, these specific markers provide a detailed view of the community's infrastructure and land ownership patterns at the start of the 21st century.
