1968 Map of Glenrio

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railway and U.S. Route 66 dictate the pulse of this borderland landscape where New Mexico meets Texas. The small community of Glenrio sits directly on the state line, serving as a distinct waypoint for travelers and rail transport during the late 1960s. South of the main thoroughfare, the older settlement of Endee is marked by the Endee Cem, offering a focal point for genealogical research in Quay County. The terrain is defined by the erosion patterns of Trujillo Creek and Martha Creek, which carve through the plains toward Sand Point Draw. This survey captures the area just as the interstate era was shifting traffic away from traditional roadside stops like the Roadside Park near the boundary of Oldham and Deaf Smith counties.
