1925 Map of Brady 1-b

USGS Topo · Published 1925

About this map

The Colorado River carves a deep path through Central Texas in this mid-1920s survey, marking the intersection of McCulloch, Coleman, and Brown counties. The settlement of Mercury serves as a local hub along the Rio Grande Highway, which runs parallel to the railroad lines of the Ft Worth and State systems. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations such as Morgen Mtn and Lost Mtn, surrounded by a complex network of drainage including Mc Dowell Creek, Chamberlain Creek, and the Crooked Branch. This map, based in part on early aerial photography by the U.S. Army Air Service, documents the landscape before the widespread development of modern reservoirs, showing the natural course of the river and the established ranching and rail infrastructure that supported early 20th-century life in the region.
