1966 Map of Nazareth NW

About this map

Middle Tule Draw carves a distinctive path across this High Plains landscape, where the borders of three counties meet. Surveyed in the mid-1960s, the map reveals a sparsely settled agricultural region defined by large land tracts and an extensive network of fencelines. The small settlement of Hendrix appears on the eastern edge of the quadrangle, serving as a focal point for the surrounding rural community. Evidence of local industry is visible along the draws, specifically near the Gravel Pit sites that utilized the area's natural deposits. A Pipeline cuts through the northern sections, signaling the infrastructure supporting the broader Texas Panhandle energy economy. This topographic record documents a specific era of land management before more intensive modern development, capturing the layout of rural roads and isolated water wells that sustained the local ranching and farming operations.
