1959 Map of Silver

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Jameson Strawn Oil Field dominates this West Texas landscape, where a dense network of pipelines and service roads supports an intensive petroleum economy. The small settlement of Silver sits at the heart of this activity, positioned near a Refinery and the prominent Silver Peak. To the north, the Panhandle and Santa Fe railroad cuts across the terrain, skirting the McCabe Oil Field and crossing Little Silver Creek. Local genealogy is anchored by the McKenzie Cem in the northwest and Cedar Hill Cem near the banks of the Colorado River. The geography is defined by mesas and hills like Stepp Mountain and Jackson Mtn, while the western edge of the map follows the winding path of the river, marked by several quarries and irrigation infrastructure.
