About this map

The North Markham Oil Field anchors the northern landscape of this survey, illustrating the industrial footprint of petroleum production in Matagorda County during the mid-20th century. The settlement of Markham serves as the primary hub, characterized by a structured grid of streets positioned west of the Colorado River. This river corridor is heavily managed, featuring an extensive system of Levee protections and technical infrastructure like the Pumping Station and Gaging Station near the river bend.
