1921 Map of Fort Stockton
USGS Topo · Published 1965About this map
Fort Stockton serves as the focal point of this West Texas survey, situated at a vital desert crossroads where the Kansas City Mexico and Orient railroad intersects with numerous regional tracks like the Old Alpine Road. The landscape is defined by the critical water resources of Comanche Springs and the Leon Springs Reservoir, which supported a burgeoning ranching economy. This agricultural network is clearly mapped through a series of family-named holdings, including the Sachse Headquarters Ranch and Price Headquarters Ranch. Educational outposts such as Leon Valley School and Valley View School appear alongside the rail lines, indicating how the community organized itself around transportation and reliable water. Prominent local landmarks like Sevenmile Mesa and Twelvemile Mesa provide topographic context for these early 20th-century settlements.
