About this map

The town of Seymour serves as the focal point of this mid-1960s landscape, positioned just north of a sharp bend in the Brazos River. The residential grid is well-defined by streets such as Oregon St, Clay St, and Washington St, supporting local institutions like the High Sch. The community's social and economic life is evidenced by the Seymour Downs Race Track, the Seymour Country Club, and the Drive-in Theater located south of town.

Energy and transportation define the outlying Baylor County territory. The Regular Oil Field occupies the southeastern corner, while the Fort Worth and Denver railroad cuts a diagonal path through the prairie. Smaller agricultural and resource-based details are scattered throughout, including numerous Gravel Pits and the Cache Creek Cem located near the intersection of Cache Creek and local farm roads.
