1985 Map of Brady

About this map

The Brady Mountains form a significant physical divide across the center of this West Texas landscape, marking the transition between the rolling plains and the river basins of the southern edge of the Edwards Plateau. Centered on the city of Brady, the map illustrates a region defined by its intersection of major transportation routes including U S 87 and the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe Railway. The northern boundary is traced by the winding Colorado River, while the San Saba River cuts through the southeastern corner, anchoring a series of small agricultural communities like Voca and Rochelle. Local genealogists will find value in the detailed locations of small settlements such as West Sweden and East Sweden, as well as the proximity of Rest Haven Cem and Catholic Cem to the regional hub at Brady, reflecting the mid-1980s settlement patterns of McCulloch and Concho counties.
