Private family legacy and ranching history characterize this South Texas landscape where the Jim Hogg Co and Starr Co boundary line bisects the brush country. The map highlights a series of small, significant burial grounds concentrated east of FM 1017, including the Santiago Olivarez Family Cem and the Fermin Olivarez Junior Cem. These landmarks suggest long-standing generational ties to the land in an area defined by large ranching operations. Modern transport routes like Borregos Ranch Rd and Rancho Viejo Rd provide the primary access through this sparsely populated territory, while several Aurora Ranch Cem sites further attest to the localized history of the region's prominent ranching estates.
