1965 Map of Tuxedo

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Tuxedo and the surrounding rolling plains of Jones County are captured here in the mid-1960s, reflecting a landscape defined by ranching, petroleum extraction, and fading rail infrastructure. The small settlement of Tuxedo serves as a local hub, anchored by the Tuxedo Ch and situated along an Old Railroad Grade that once connected these rural outposts to larger markets. To the south, Fairview Ch stands near the banks of California Creek, a significant watercourse that meanders across the lower portion of the map along with Skinout Creek. Oil exploration is evident throughout the area, with numerous Oil Wells peppered across the ranch lands, particularly near Cecil. In the northeastern corner, Paint Creek flows past Flat Top Ranch and the Capron Cem, providing a detailed look at the family-named landmarks and small-scale infrastructure that supported this Texas community during the postwar era.
