1958 Map of Lovers Resort

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Salt Fork Brazos River carves a winding path through this portion of Stonewall County, defining the wide Brazos Valley where petroleum exploration and rural community life intersected in the late 1950s. The landscape is dotted with numerous Oil Wells and a specific Oil Sludge Pit, highlighting the industrial footprint on the Texas plains. Social and civic life for local residents centered on landmarks like the Shinnery Lake Community Hall near Shinnery Lake, and the remote Lovers Resort situated along the river bends. Genealogists and local historians will find the Brazos Valley Cemetery a significant point of interest, while the presence of the Betta Bend Conglomerate Field indicates the unique geological character of the terrain where Salt Croton Creek joins the larger river system.
