1951 Map of Inez NW

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Garcitas Creek and Willow Creek meander through this rural section of Victoria County, marking a landscape defined by ranching and early energy development in the early 1950s. The presence of numerous windmills suggests a reliance on groundwater for livestock across the varied topography. Industrial activity is evident in the western reaches, where a Gas Collecting Station and scattered Gas Wells indicate the emergence of the local oil and gas economy. Cultural life is anchored by Salem in the north and Mt Pisgah Ch to the southeast, providing a view into the community's social fabric during this era. Infrastructure such as a Pipe Line and a dedicated Slush Pit further emphasize the transition toward petroleum production that was occurring alongside traditional land uses.
