1961 Map of Sample

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Sandies Creek and its numerous tributaries, including Cottonwood Creek and Shoats Creek, define the landscape of this rural South Texas region. The 1961 survey, later updated with photorevised data in 1987, reveals a sparsely populated terrain dominated by cattle ranching and early mineral extraction. Evidence of past transportation is found in the Old Railroad Grade that cuts diagonally across the northern section, while the local extractive industry is represented by scattered Quarry and Gravel Pit sites.
