1966 Map of Tackett Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The rugged terrain of Tackett Mountain dominates this portion of Young County during the mid-1960s, a landscape defined by its extractive economy and sparse rural settlements. The map shows an extensive oil field network, with numerous Oil Wells and a pipeline threading through the draws and ridges. Settlement patterns here are primarily historical or industrial, evidenced by Drummond (Site) and scattered family landmarks. Hydrology is central to the area's layout, with Fish Creek and its North Fork winding through the hills toward the Brazos R on the eastern edge. Man-made water features like Tub Tank and Bait Tank reflect the necessities of ranching in this North Texas environment. For genealogists, the inclusion of Murray Cem and Tyra Cem provides vital location data for early area residents.
