1897 Map of Brackettville
USGS Topo · Published 1932About this map
Fort Clark and the adjacent town of Brackettville anchor this frontier landscape, serving as a critical military and social hub in the late nineteenth century. The map reveals a fascinating cultural geography, notably including the Seminole Settlement south of the fort, a location of immense value for genealogists and historians of the Black Seminole Scouts. This 1890s survey preserves a network of family-held properties such as Hitchcock Ranch, Weymiller Ranch, and Woodhull Ranch, illustrating the transition from open range to established ranching operations.
