2010 Map of Margaret

About this map

Margaret sits at the junction of N FM 98 and several rural routes in Foard County, serving as the primary settlement in this northern Texas landscape. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Pease River, which cuts across the northern half of the quadrangle. Significant water management features are evident through the Copper Breaks State Park Dam, which contains Lake Copper Breaks in the northwest, and the Carroll Lake Dam further south. The physical geography of the area is further characterized by prominent landmarks like Raggedy Mountain and Warrior Hollow, providing notable relief against the grid of farm-to-market roads. This map documents a region where ranching and agricultural life are deeply tied to the intermittent flows of Raggedy Creek, Cottonwood Creek, and Mule Creek, illustrating the modern layout of these historic Texas plains.
