1964 Map of Anhalt

About this map

Anhalt and the surrounding Hill Country landscape of Comal County are captured here in a 1964 survey, showing the rural Texas settlement patterns before significant modern suburban expansion. The map is exceptionally detailed regarding family heritage, documenting numerous private burial sites such as Kabelmacher Cem, Beierle Cem, and Krause Cem. These small cemeteries, alongside landmarks like Farmers Hall and St Joseph Chapel, provide a clear picture of the community's German-Texan roots and social centers. The winding course of the Guadalupe River and its tributaries, including Honey Creek and Swine Creek, dictate the local topography, while gravel pits and quarries scattered near Ahern and Hanz Creek point to the area's geological resource extraction. Farther south, the Bulverde Community Center and Bulverde Sch anchor the burgeoning townsite along Ammann Road.
