1953 Map of Pomeroy

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The High Plains landscape of the Texas Panhandle is defined here by the drainage of West Fork Antelope Creek and East Fork Antelope Creek as they carve through the plateau. This 1950s survey captures a transition in the local economy, where traditional ranching operations like the Deal Ranch and Williams Ranch coexist with emerging mid-century infrastructure. The arrival of communication technology is marked by the Radio Towers (KGNC) and Transmitter (KGNC) near the center of the sheet. Transportation is anchored by two major rail lines: the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific running along the western edge through Masterson, and the Panhandle and Santa Fe passing through Pomeroy to the east. The presence of several large catchment basins, including Rockwell Lake, Icehouse Lake, and Pantex Lake, highlights the critical importance of water management in this semi-arid ranching country.
