1956 Map of Algerita

About this map

San Saba River drainage defines the central landscape of this mid-1950s survey, where the river valley transitions into the elevated terrain of Brady Mountain and High Point Mountain. The corridor of the Gulf Colorado And Santa Fe (At & SF) railroad runs through the northern section, connecting the small communities of Algerita and Harkeyville. This era reflects a ranching and rural economy heavily dependent on water management, evidenced by the numerous named tanks and windmills, such as Thousand Dollar Tank and Kelley Windmill, scattered across the highlands and creek drainages like Wallace Creek.
