1964 Map of Markley

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The borderlands of Young and Jack Counties in North Texas are defined by a network of cattle-country drainages and rising oil production. The small settlement of Markley and the community at Prideaux anchor the northern reaches, where an extensive Oil Field is established near Bare Mountain. Local spiritual and communal life centers on Plum Grove Ch and the Graceland Cem further south. The landscape is characterized by prominent elevations such as Rattlesnake Mountain and Spie Knob, which overlook winding watercourses like Wilton Creek and Cameron Creek. An Old Railroad Grade near Jermyn indicates the path of former rail commerce through this ranching region. Photorevised in the early 1980s, the survey captures the area's transition from traditional homesteads to an era of expanded petroleum extraction and improved rural road networks.
