About this map

The Oil and Gas Field dominates the landscape of this Carson County region in the early 1960s, reflecting the industrial character of the Texas Panhandle during the post-war energy boom. The town of Skellytown serves as the primary residential hub, supported by smaller locales like Skelly and Cargray along the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad tracks. This era of petroleum development is documented through a dense network of infrastructure, including a Refinery, a Carbon Black Plant, and multiple Gasoline Refineries scattered across the undulating plains.
