1962 Map of McFaddin

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The San Antonio River carves a remarkably sinuous path through this coastal prairie landscape, defining the winding boundary between Victoria and Refugio counties. Near the rail lines of the Missouri Pacific, the small settlement of McFaddin serves as a local hub, supported by the extensive McFaddin Field petroleum and gas operations that dot the surrounding acreage. The map records several sites of significant genealogical interest, including the McFaddin Memorial Cem and De la Garza Cem, along with rural congregations at Concord Saint James Ch and Mt Salem Ch. This terrain is characterized by the transition from upland prairie drainage, such as Kuy Creek, to the low-lying marshy environments of Cushman Bayou and Flat Bayou near the river's edge. The distribution of numerous gas and flowing wells across the Anaqua Field illustrates the intensive mid-century energy development that transformed this part of the Texas Gulf Coast.
