1962 Map of Whites Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Whites Ranch and the tiny settlement of Sea Breeze anchor this low-lying coastal landscape along the Chambers Co Jefferson Co line. The infrastructure of the Gulf Coast oil and water economy is visible throughout, from the Big Hill Oil Field in the northeast to the extensive network of the Devers East Canal and Spindletop Ditch. These man-made channels cut through the expansive Spindletop Marsh, illustrating the mid-century effort to manage the brackish wetlands for industrial and agricultural use.
