1966 Map of Flower Grove

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Flower Grove and the surrounding high plains of West Texas are characterized by an expansive network of resource extraction and water management features in the mid-1960s. The landscape is defined by the ephemeral presence of Alkali Lake (Salt) and the Sulphur Sprs Draw, illustrating the arid conditions of the Permian Basin. Local infrastructure is marked by numerous wells and a prominent Pipeline cutting across the terrain, reflecting the region's industrial focus on oil and gas exploration. Scattered settlements like Three League and Sanders appear as modest hubs amidst a grid of unimproved dirt roads and section lines. Notable landmarks such as Soda Windmills and various Drill Holes provide specific points of interest for researchers tracing the history of land use and mineral development in Martin and Texas counties.
