1961 Map of Nutt

About this map

The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor defines this high-desert landscape in the early 1960s, cutting through the junction of Sierra, Dona Ana, and Luna counties. The small settlement of Nutt serves as a focal point near Nutt Mountain, surrounded by a network of isolated homesteads and ranching outposts such as Duncan Ranch, Jones Ranch, and Winder Ranch. This era shows the transition of local infrastructure, documented by the Hatch Airport (Aband) and a series of deep desert arroyos including Arroyo Cuervo and Arroyo Jaralosa that drain toward the Rio Grande in the northeast. Genealogists and local historians can locate specific landmarks like the North Cem and La Capilla de Don Silverio, which reflect the cultural footprint of families settled among the canyons of the Sierra de las Uvas.
