1957 Map of Twin Buttes

About this map

The Pulliam Oil Field defines much of the industrial activity in this West Texas landscape during the late 1950s, dotted with oil wells and tanks near the prominent Pulliam Pt. This era captures the hydrologic transition of the region, where the Middle Concho River flows toward the extensive San Angelo Reservoir and Lake Nasworthy. The presence of the Panhandle and Santa Fe railroad line running parallel to the river systems illustrates the critical link between resource extraction and transportation. Local landmarks such as the Chapel-on-the-Hill and the distinctive Twin Buttes provide essential orientation points for those studying the mid-century development of Tom Green County. Further south, features like Red Slough and Red Bluff Slough mark the natural drainage patterns into the local lakes, while the Arden Road serves as a primary artery through the rolling terrain.
