1963 Map of Garfield

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Garfield and the neighboring settlement of Old Davy anchor this survey of the South Texas brush country at the border of DeWitt and Karnes Counties. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of seasonal drainage, with Salt Creek and Ecleto Creek winding through the terrain alongside lesser-known courses like McTennel Creek and Thomas Creek. The map records a rural economy centered on resource extraction and cattle ranching, marked by several Gravel Pits and scattered Gas Wells that interrupt the woodland and pasture. A significant genealogical marker is found at Salt Creek Cem, located in the northeastern quadrant. The presence of an Indefinite Boundary between the two counties suggests the historical complexity of land surveying in this portion of the coastal plains during the early 1960s.
