1962 Map of Edith

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Colorado River carves a winding path through this portion of Coke County, defining a landscape marked by deep creek drainages and early energy exploration. Near the settlement of Edith, the terrain is punctuated by numerous quarries, oil wells, and a gas well, reflecting the mid-century industrial activity in the region. The map provides significant genealogical value through the presence of the Sanco Cem in the northeast and family-named landmarks like Elm Bend. Distinctive hydrologic features such as Dripping Springs and the convergence of Yellow Wolf Creek with the river highlight the complex drainage network of Messbox Creek and Wildcat Creek that feeds the main river valley. This 1962 field-checked survey also captures fine details like selected fence lines and a sandpit, offering a precise view of rural land use before modern developments.
