1936 Map of Fourways

About this map

The cattle ranching and early petroleum infrastructure of the Texas Panhandle define this landscape, surveyed shortly after the Great Depression. The map records a complex network of family holdings and livestock operations across the Moore and Potter County line, including the Masterson Ranch, Sneeds Ranch, and several divisions of the Thompson family lands such as the Thompson Headquarters Ranch and Thompson North Ranch. The presence of the Bivins Booster Station and the settlement of Exell highlights the region's developing energy sector. To the south, the terrain breaks sharply as the plains give way to the deep erosion of Big Canyon and Spring Creek, eventually reaching the wide bed of the Canadian River. Transportation is anchored by the Panhandle and Santa Fe railroad and the shared route of U.S. Highway 385 and State Highway 5.
