1963 Map of Yorktown East

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Yorktown anchors this DeWitt County landscape during a period of steady petroleum and gas extraction. The town's religious and educational foundations are visible through sites like Holy Cross Sch and St Pauls Cath, while the surrounding countryside is marked by numerous family and community landmarks such as Rabke Cem and the Captain York Cem. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages including Twelvemile Creek, Fifteenmile Creek, and Hoosier Creek, which wind through the extensive Yorktown Gas Field and Holly Oil Field. An Old Railroad Grade cutting across the northwest corner suggests the shift in transportation infrastructure as the local economy transitioned toward energy production in the Henze Field and Brandt Oil Field.
