1972 Map of Agua Nueva SE

About this map

Ramirito Ranch sits just north of the county line in this 1970s landscape defined by the livestock and energy industries of Deep South Texas. The map illustrates a distinctive infrastructure of water and extraction, where scattered windmills such as Noria de Llano Windmill, Plato Windmill, and Brazil Windmill are the primary landmarks across the rolling terrain. These named water sources, along with the cluster of buildings at Particion, provide essential points of reference for local historians and genealogists researching the ranching heritage of the area. Industrial activity is concentrated along several corridors, including multiple Oil Well sites and a prominent Pipeline that traverses the southern half of the quadrangle. The boundary between Jim Hogg Co Starr Co cuts across the lower portion of the sheet, marking the transition between these two prominent cattle-raising counties.
