1969 Map of Jayton South

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The town of Jayton serves as the focal point for this late 1960s West Texas survey, where the rolling plains meet the dramatic breaks of the Salt Fork Brazos River. This landscape is a hybrid of agricultural utility and oil-field infrastructure, evidenced by an extensive Aqueduct running west from the town and numerous water tanks scattered across the terrain. The transport history of Kent County is etched into the earth here, notably through the long-stretching Old Railroad Grade that cuts diagonally across the eastern half of the map, and the rural infrastructure supporting the Substa and local Gravel Pits. Water management is central to the area's layout, with Duck Creek, ABC Creek, and Carter Draw providing the primary drainage towards the river. Cultural landmarks such as Jayton Park, the Golf Course, and a Roadside Park along the highway reflect the community's established footprint during this era.
