About this map

Ella and Seeligson serve as the primary points of settlement in this South Texas landscape, situated along a north-south transportation corridor in Jim Wells County. The region is defined by a dense patchwork of large grazing lands, reflecting a ranching heritage through named tracts such as Ella Pasture, Ratamosa Pasture, and Borregos Pasture. These boundaries delineate a long-standing system of land use where ephemeral water sources like Salado Cr and Jaboncillos Cr cross the terrain.

The presence of the Jim Wells Co Kleberg Co boundary line underscores the area's administrative history. Named pastures like Little Cabeza Pasture and Big Cabeza Pasture illustrate the local importance of specific topographic and agricultural divisions. This survey captures a rural environment where county roads, such as Co RD 433 and Co RD 432, connect isolated ranching headquarters and pastures across the coastal plain.
