About this map

Large cattle ranches and seasonal creek beds define this portion of Webb County during the mid-1930s, as documented in this 1956 reprint of a military tactical survey. The landscape is dominated by family-named landholdings such as Becerra Ranch, Lincoln Ranch, and Gato Ranch, illustrating the expansive ranching economy of South Texas. The central social hub of this rural district appears at Becerra Settlement, where the Buena Vista School served the local ranching families.
