1984 Map of Strawn East

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Strawn and Mingus anchor this mid-1980s landscape, illustrating the enduring settlement patterns of the Texas coal-mining country. The topography is defined by significant ridges and family-named heights, including Dickson Walker Mountain and Wolf Mountain. The industrial legacy of the region is written directly onto the land, evidenced by features such as Coal Mine Mountain and Steam Shovel Mountain south of Thurber. Water management is central to the area's development, with Lake Mingus and Lake C B Long providing significant reservoirs amid the winding course of Palo Pinto Creek. The convergence of Palo Pinto, Eastland, and Erath counties occurs in the southern portion of the map, near the community of New York Hill, showing how early jurisdictional boundaries followed the local terrain.
