1940 Map of Cometa

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Cometa and its surrounding ranch lands appear here as they were just before the mid-century, situated where the high plains of Southwest Texas meet the brush country. This landscape is defined by its extensive network of seasonal drainages, including Chacon Creek and Comanche Creek, which shaped the placement of large cattle operations. The map documents a sparsely populated but active ranching economy, identifying individual holdings such as the Chimeneas Ranch and Sullivan Ranch, alongside the homes of local figures like M E Ware and C L Van Cleve.
