1968 Map of Gardendale

A network of numbered and named water sources, including Ward Windmill, Mutt Windmill, and Caliche Windmill, reveals the critical role of groundwater in this arid terrain. The map also records localized features like the Circle Bar Ranch and several gravel pits, providing a detailed look at the land use patterns during the late 1960s and early 1970s. This survey is particularly useful for those tracing the development of oil infrastructure and early rural community layouts in West Texas.
