1961 Map of Shawville

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Shawville sits as a central settlement in Coke County on this 1961 survey, situated along the Panhandle and Santa Fe railroad line. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Colorado River, which is fed by several tributaries including Oak Creek and Double Barrel Creek. Significant industrial activity is evident in the northern portion of the map, where the Fort Chadbourne Oil Field is marked by numerous oil wells and associated infrastructure. The terrain rises sharply at landmarks such as Cedar Mtn and Juniper Peak, providing a clear record of the area's physical geography before modern development. Smaller resource extraction sites, including a Gravel Pit and Borrow Pit, dot the area near the river and rail corridor, illustrating the mid-century rural economy of West Texas.
