1954 Map of San Angelo

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

San Angelo serves as the regional hub in this West Texas survey, where the confluence of the North Concho River, Middle Concho River, and South Concho River defines the local geography. The map captures the significant water management infrastructure of the Concho Valley, including Twin Buttes Res, Lake Nasworthy, and the EV Spence Reservoir along the Colorado River. The landscape transitions from the river valleys to the high mesas and peaks of the Edwards Plateau, marked by landmarks like Goat Mountain and Nipple Peak. Transportation networks of the Santa Fe RR link dispersed ranching and oil-producing outposts such as Texon, Santa Rita, and Best. Small community centers like Knickerbocker and Saint Lawrence provide a view into the rural settlement patterns and local lineage of Tom Green County and its neighbors during the late 1970s.
