2012 Map of Washburn

About this map

Washburn and Yarnall anchor this portion of the Texas Panhandle, where the high plains are segmented by an orderly grid of country roads and modern transportation corridors. The settlement of Washburn displays a clear street plan featuring Lively St, Moore St, and White, situated just south of the major highway junction. To the east, the Washburn Cem serves as a significant local landmark for genealogical research. The landscape is defined by its agricultural layout, with long thoroughfares like Durrett Rd and Ranch Road 2373 crossing the territory. In the southern reaches, the natural drainage of Mulberry Cr meanders through the terrain, providing a rare break in the geometric precision of the surveyed sections. This map documents the area during a period of established highway connectivity, showing the relationship between the Interstate 40 corridor and the older town sites that preceded it.
