1966 Map of Putnam North

About this map

Deep Creek and its many tributaries carve through the rolling Callahan County landscape, defining the rural character of this mid-1960s survey. The map centers on a landscape dominated by the energy and ranching economy, where numerous Oil Wells, a Drill Hole, and a Gravel Pit are scattered among the drainage basins of Battle Creek and Post Oak Creek. Near the southern edge, the settlement of Putnam serves as a small focal point, while the northern reaches reveal an Old Railroad Grade and a network of buried pipelines. Genealogists will find the Hart Cem located near the junction of Sheep Creek and Oak Creek, providing a specific point of interest for family history research in this part of North Texas.
