1964 Map of Lynn Creek

About this map

Squaw Mountain and the Indian Hills rise above the drainage basins of Jack County, where the landscape of the mid-1960s was defined by active extraction and rural transit. Extensive Oil Field operations and Gravel Pits dot the terrain, showing the industrial footprint alongside agricultural fence lines. The water network is particularly dense here, with Mc Donald Branch and Roper Branch feeding into larger systems like Cameron Creek and North Creek. An Old Railroad Grade cuts across the southern portion of the sheet, providing a clear path for genealogists and local historians to trace former transit corridors that once connected these remote Texas hills. Local social centers are anchored by the Lynn Creek Chapel and resting places such as the Roberts Branch Cem and Round Mountain Cem, which remain as fixed points in an otherwise shifting landscape of petroleum development and changing ranch boundaries.
