About this map

The Colorado and Southern railroad cuts a straight line across this high plains landscape of Union County, providing the primary infrastructure for the small community of Royce. Life in this mid-1960s cattle country centers around the essential management of water and livestock, evidenced by the numerous named landmarks such as McCook Windmill, Knolls Windmill, and Ham Windmill. The drainage network of Perico Creek and Rabbit Ear Creek defines the local topography, while localized extraction is noted at several Gravel Pits and a Quarry. For those researching family history in the region, the map identifies specific burial sites including Antioch Cem and Otto Cem, alongside established properties like Rockledge Ranch and Mays Ranch, offering a clear view of land use and habitation during this era.
