About this map

Putnam serves as the primary hub of this Callahan County landscape, situated along the Union Pacific railroad corridor. The area exhibits a pattern of rural industry, characterized by a sprawling Oil Field and scattered Oil Wells that indicate the subterranean economy of the mid-20th century. Terrain features are defined by numerous drainage systems, including the southward-flowing Battle Creek and the meandering Brushy Creek, which carve through the undulating Texas plains. Further south, the small community of Atwell represents the quieter agricultural character of the region. Transportation and infrastructure are highlighted by a dedicated Landing Strip and multiple Pipelines, reflecting the specialized logistical needs of the local energy and ranching sectors during the 1960s and 1980s.
