1980 Map of Escobas

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The South Texas landscape around Escobas is defined by a dense network of water management features and petroleum exploration as it appeared in the late 1970s. This region of Zapata County reveals a reliance on numerous livestock or irrigation catchments, including Negros Tank, Salomoneña Tank, and La Mota Tank, scattered across the undulating terrain near Taguache Creek. The infrastructure of the Jennings Oil and Gas Field and Jennings West Oil and Gas Field dominates the industrial character of the map, with multiple oil and gas wells connected by a prominent Pipeline. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet preserves the location of rural burial sites like Gracia Cem and Camaron Cem, as well as the small settlement of Bustamante at the southern edge. These details offer a clear view of the ranching and energy-based economy that shaped this area of the Brush Country.
