1969 Map of Thrifty

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Jim Ned Creek winds across the northern landscape of this Central Texas region, defining a terrain shaped by water and energy. The 1969 field survey documents a rural economy where petroleum extraction and livestock ranching intersect, marked by the extensive Oil Field and an Indefinite Boundary between Coleman and Brown Counties. Settlements like Thrifty and the small locale of Buffalo serve as anchors for the surrounding agricultural community, while the presence of Eureka Ch and Salem Cem provides essential touchpoints for genealogical research. Prominent local landmarks such as Indian Mountain and Mayberry Mountain rise above the drainage basins of Sand Creek and Mud Creek. Infrastructure of the era is clearly visible, including a Pumping Sta, a Landing Strip, and numerous gravel and clay pits, illustrating the mid-century industrial footprint on the West Texas plains.
