1963 Map of New Ulm
USGS Topo · Published 1982About this map
The rolling prairies of West Texas are defined here by the headwaters of the West Mill Creek system and the Missouri Kansas Texas railroad corridor. This landscape is a patchwork of German-Texan heritage, anchored by the town of New Ulm and the outlying community of Industry. The map reveals a dense distribution of rural burial sites, including the National Cem, Zettle Cem, and Star Hill Cem, which serve as vital markers for family historians and genealogists. Local industry and land use are evident through the New Ulm Oil Field and the numerous pipelines that traverse the terrain near New Bremen. The complex network of watercourses, such as Black Walnut Creek and Meckelroy Branch, suggests the historical importance of drainage and reliable water in this agricultural region during the early 1960s.
