About this map

Vealmoor sits at the southern edge of the Borden and Howard county line, serving as the primary hub in this West Texas ranching landscape. The terrain is defined by a dense network of intermittent water sources and storage tanks, essential for livestock in this arid environment. Named tanks such as Six Section Tank, Glen Tank, and Windmill Tank are scattered across the draws, while Glen Creek and Rattlesnake Cr carve through the undulating plains.

Local genealogy and history center on the Vealmoor Cem located south of the main settlement. The map reveals the intricate grid of rural routes like Ranch Rd 1584 and W FM 1785 that connect isolated homesteads and pastures. To the northeast, the land slopes toward Dorward Draw and Wolf Cr, illustrating the drainage patterns that have shaped land use and property boundaries in this part of the Llano Estacado region.
