1927 Map of Artesia Wells

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

The Nueces River winds through this South Texas landscape, creating a lifeline of lakes and seasonal drainages amidst the brush country. Surveyed in the mid-1920s, the map reveals a ranching economy centered around family-named outposts such as Cochina Ranch, San Roque Ranch, and Wuruberger Ranch. These stations are connected by a network of early transit routes, including Big Wells Road and Kings Road, which navigate the subtle topography between the county line and the river bottom.
