1963 Map of Ganado

About this map

The Navidad River and its winding tributaries, including Sutherland Creek and Brushy Creek, dominate this coastal prairie landscape in Jackson County. The town of Ganado serves as the regional hub, situated along the Southern Pacific railroad line. This era shows a landscape heavily influenced by the petroleum industry, with the Cordele Oil Field to the northwest and the Ganado West Oil Field south of town. Rural life is defined by a network of family-named roads like Matus Road, Thellmann Road, and Kuhlman Road. Cultural landmarks such as the Assumption Cemetery and Ganado Cem provide important reference points for local history. The presence of the Sandy Creek Oil Field and scattered wells underscores the economic drivers of the mid-20th century in this portion of Texas.
