1962 Map of Melo

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad cuts a diagonal line across this South Texas landscape, serving as the primary infrastructure for the cattle and oil interests of the early 1960s. The small settlement of Melo and the nearby Melo Ranch anchor the northern reaches of the map, while large family-held tracts like Bissitt Ranch and Chip Ranch dominate the surrounding acreage. This is a working landscape of drainage and extraction, where numerous Gas Wells and an extensive network of pipelines intersect with the natural flow of Sarco Creek and Martinez Creek.
