1957 Map of Indio Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Rio Grande forms a prominent natural boundary between United States and Mexico in this 1940s-era tactical study. The landscape is defined by the ranching economy of Maverick County, notably centered around the Indio Cattle Co and its proximity to Indio Lake. The map reveals a specific pattern of rural habitation, with numerous family-named homesteads including D H Havin, H Melton, and E Bradberry clustered near the northern drainage of Indio Creek. These property labels provide a detailed window into the local genealogy and land use of the mid-20th century. Further south, the terrain transitions toward Tovar and the drainages of Cuervo Creek and Tovar Creek, showing the sparse but intentional distribution of settlements across the brush country of the borderlands.
