1970 Map of Eden SW

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Negro Gap and the surrounding high ground along the Concho Co Menard Co line define this portion of the Edwards Plateau. The landscape is characterized by a network of drainage systems, including Live Oak Creek, Fitzgerald Creek, and Celery Creek, which carve through the terrain. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, the area's economy was heavily influenced by resource extraction, evidenced by an extensive Oil Field and numerous scattered Oil Wells and gravel pits. The presence of named landmarks like Millar, Lackey, and Jacoby suggests the enduring footprint of ranching and early landholding families in this rural part of Central Texas. Updated with 1983 aerial revisions, the map also captures utility infrastructure such as a Pipeline and a Spillway located near the headwaters of Live Oak Creek.
