1951 Map of Morrisey NE

About this map

M Bar Ranch anchors the southeastern landscape of this Weston County terrain, situated where the Morrisey Road crosses the winding path of Beaver Creek. Mapped in the early 1950s, the area illustrates the quiet integration of ranching and energy infrastructure in eastern Wyoming. A Pipe Line cuts across the western sections of the township, connecting various Oil Well sites, including one marked as an Oil Well (Inactive). The drainage pattern is dominated by the convergence of the South Beaver Creek and its main fork, with numerous Windmill sites scattered across the plains to support local livestock. This survey provides a clear view of the mid-century petroleum development and grazing operations that define this portion of the Missouri River Basin.
