1964 Map of Eldorado SW

About this map

Dry Devils River snakes through this portion of Schleicher County, illustrating the arid landscape of the Edwards Plateau during the mid-1960s. The map highlights a rural economy dependent on ranching and infrastructure, marked by the Johnson Ranch and Willoughby Ranch. Water management is a primary focus, visible through the presence of Site No 1, an area designated for controlled inundation near a spillway. Genealogists and local historians will find value in the documentation of the Eldorado Cem and the more remote Bailey Ranch Cem. The industrial footprint of the era is represented by numerous Gravel Pits, a network of Pipelines, and a Pumping Station, showing the integration of resource extraction and transport into the traditional ranching landscape.
