2010 Map of Mobeetie

About this map

Mobeetie and New Mobeetie anchor this Wheeler County landscape, revealing the transition of a pioneer-era Panhandle settlement into a modern ranching and agricultural hub. The map provides a high-resolution view of local landmarks such as Mobeetie Cemetery and Mount Zion Cemetery, which serve as vital touchstones for family history and genealogical research in this part of Texas. The terrain is defined by a sophisticated network of water management features, including a series of reservoirs such as Soil Conservation Service Site 17 Reservoir and Soil Conservation Service Site 19 Reservoir, strategically placed along the seasonal drainages of Gageby Creek and Adobe Creek. These reservoirs and their associated dams, such as Dam Number 18, reflect the critical role of soil and water conservation in maintaining the cattle and crop economy. Isolated landmarks like Bankhead Mound and Lime Hill rise above the creeks, providing geographic orientation across the open landscape of Carwile Ranch.
