About this map

The settlement of Frio Town serves as the focal point of this South Texas landscape, situated along the meandering course of the Frio River. This 2019 survey provides a modern view of the area's enduring ranching identity, documented through family-named landmarks like the Ahr Ranch and infrastructure such as Vanco Ranch Rd. The river itself is joined by several tributaries, including Cocklebur Cr, which cut through the terrain south of the Medina and Frio County line.

Local history and genealogy interests are anchored by the Frio Town Cem, a critical site for those tracing the roots of early settlers in this region. The map illustrates a network of rural roads, including W FM 140 and Squirrel Creek Rd, that connect these isolated ranches to the wider county. The lack of dense urbanization highlights the area's continued reliance on the river and large landholdings.
