1972 Map of Sterling City

About this map

Sterling City serves as the focal point of this West Texas landscape, situated where the North Concho River meets the drainages of Mackenzie Draw and Bodsaw Draw. The layout of the town is clearly defined, showing residential blocks and essential infrastructure such as a Hosp, Park, and Water Tank. To the south and west, the terrain rises toward Round Top, while the water network is further detailed by a Gaging Sta along the river and the presence of Sterling Creek. Local genealogy and history are anchored by the Montvale Cem and a smaller Cem located near the town's southern edge. The map also documents the area's resource extraction, noting scattered Oil Well locations and several Gravel Pit sites, particularly near the river and the branching paths of Cox Hollow.
