2010 Map of Melrose West

About this map

Melrose serves as the primary hub of this high plains landscape, situated at the eastern edge of a grid-iron network of agricultural transit routes. This 2010 survey illustrates the town's layout alongside the Melrose Post Office, while the surrounding terrain is defined by the intermittent drainage of Fiddlers Draw. The map documents a transition in jurisdictional boundaries at County Line Rd, separating the lands of Curry and Roosevelt counties. Smaller named points of interest such as Cantara and the North Cemetery provide specific landmarks for genealogical and local history research within the expansive agricultural section lines. The road system, including Curry Road 16 and Roosevelt Road 13, reveals the structured development of this rural New Mexico region.
