2023 Map of Ironhouse Draw

About this map

Morgan Cem and Crockett Cem stand as significant genealogical markers in this high-desert landscape of Lea County. The area around Pearl Valley is defined by a sparse network of rural roads, including Willow Tree Rd and Aquarius Ln, which navigate the arid terrain. Red Lake provides a rare hydrographic landmark in a region otherwise dominated by the geometric precision of the Public Land Survey System, as seen in the boundaries of t18s r35e and surrounding townships. This 2023 survey illustrates the modern layout of these ranching or oil-producing lands, where long-standing family names are preserved in the naming of cemeteries and local thoroughfares like Burton Ln.
