2022 Map of Quitaque

About this map

The town of Quitaque serves as a central hub in this corner of the Texas Panhandle, positioned where the high plains begin their descent into the rolling breaks. The landscape is defined by the convergence of several major drainage systems, including Los Lingos Cr and Quitaque Cr, which carve through the terrain to form landmarks like Pole Canyon. The map reveals a transition of political boundaries where Briscoe, Floyd, and Motley counties meet, illustrating the late-modern parceling of ranching and agricultural lands. Transportation is anchored by Ranch Rd 1065 and FM 599, while local aviation is served by Henson Farms Airport. For genealogists and local historians, the inclusion of Resthaven Cem near the town center and the more isolated Gray Mule Cem to the southwest provides critical touchpoints for tracing family lineages in this rural cattle-and-farming country.
