1965 Map of Ray Point

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

The boundary between Bee and Live Oak counties cuts through this South Texas landscape, where the confluence of Sulphur Creek and Mustang Creek defines the local topography. At the time of this survey, the area was characterized by a rural economy of ranching and early petroleum extraction, evidenced by numerous Oil Wells and a prominent pipeline corridor. The settlement of Ray Point serves as a local anchor near the southern edge, while smaller locales like Oaks and Bee sit further north. Genealogists will find the location of Wernli Cem and other Cemeteries valuable for tracing family roots in this sparsely populated region. The terrain is marked by distinctive drainages and rises, such as Odom Hill and Best Branch, which provided natural landmarks for residents before modern development altered the ranchland character.
