2010 Map of Quail

About this map

Quail and the northern settlement of Marilla anchor this section of the Texas Panhandle, defined by a rigid grid of agricultural roads. The landscape is marked by the presence of McIntosh Lake and the associated McIntosh Lake Dam in the southwest, while the drainages of Dry Hollow cut through the terrain. A network of county routes, including Co RD 90 and Co RD 40, intersect with FM 1547, illustrating the rural infrastructure required for the region's farming and ranching operations. Genealogists will find the Quail Cemetery north of the main townsite particularly noteworthy. The map reveals the precise layout of the panhandle prairie, where every mile is accounted for by the intersection of numbered county roads and state farm-to-market routes.
