1961 Map of Cave Creek School

About this map

The agrarian landscape of Gillespie County is defined by a network of family ranches and rural institutions along the tributaries of Grape Creek. Central to this community in the early 1960s were the Cave Creek Sch and Rhinegold Sch, serving a population of scattered homesteads such as the Koennecke Ranch and Ruak Ranch. The presence of several family-named cemeteries, including the Rode Cem and Youngs Chapel Cem, provides significant value for genealogical research in this part of the Texas Hill Country. The terrain is marked by prominent elevations like Roundhead and various watercourses such as Ottmers Branch and Schumann Branch. Local transportation was facilitated by gravel and unimproved roads like Doublehorn Road and Gellermen Road, which connected these remote ranching outposts to larger regional hubs.
