About this map

Aguilares and the surrounding South Texas cattle country are captured here at the end of the 1930s, showing a landscape defined by ranching, rail, and early oil expansion. The Texas Mexican Railroad cuts across the northern half of the territory, connecting established ranching outposts like Villegas and Reiser Ranch to the regional hubs of Aguilares and Mirando City. The prevalence of named holdings such as Dodier Ranch, Ramirez Ranch, and Killiam Ranch indicates the long-standing familial land divisions of Webb Co and Zapata Co.
