About this map

Industrial resource extraction and rural crossroads define the landscape of south-central Jefferson County in the early 1990s. The region is heavily marked by the energy sector, featuring the Fannett Oil Field, Gilbert Ranch Oil Field, and Marrs Mc Clean Gas Field. A dense network of pipelines traverses the territory, intersecting at the small settlement of Fannett, which serves as a local hub near Morey.

The physical geography is dominated by a complex drainage system, including the branching of the North Fork Taylor Bayou and South Fork Taylor Bayou. The central portion of the sheet is characterized by the wooded expanse of Gilbert Woods, while more isolated landmarks like Pignut Island and drainage features such as Pignut Gully provide specific points of interest for local history and topography. Rural life is further evidenced by long-standing family-named routes like Mc Dermand Road and South China Road.
