1964 Map of Padgett

About this map

The Brazos River meanders sharply through the heart of the North Texas landscape in this mid-1960s survey, defining the rugged border between Throckmorton and Young Counties. The river's serpentine course is joined by a network of drainage systems including Bitter Creek, Camp Creek, and Leopard Creek, illustrating a classic prairie fluvial system. Human activity in the area is centered on the settlement of Padgett, where the local Padgett Cem provides a focal point for genealogical interest. To the west, the village of Elbert sits near the county line, while the small community of Daniels is located further north. This period of the mid-twentieth century shows the footprint of the local oil industry with several Oil Wells scattered across the plains, alongside extraction sites like Gravel Pits that supported the region's infrastructure and development.
