1969 Map of Roscoe

About this map

Roscoe serves as the focal point of this West Texas landscape during the late 1960s, defined by its position at the intersection of critical transit and energy corridors. The town is anchored by its community infrastructure, including the High Sch, an Athletic Field, and Roscoe Cem Cemetery, reflecting a settled agricultural and industrial hub. The presence of the Texas and Pacific and the Roscoe Snyder and Pacific railroads underscores the importance of rail transport for both regional goods and the local economy. Beyond the town grid, the landscape is marked by the Oil and Gas Field and numerous Gravel Pits, while a network of pipelines crisscrosses the terrain. Rural connectivity is maintained through family-named routes like Jarratt Norris Road and Duncan Hastings Road, which link the town to the surrounding plains and the winding course of Cottonwood Creek.
