1961 Map of Gillett

About this map

Gillett and Pandora anchor this rural landscape where Wilson, Karnes, and Gonzales counties converge. The region is defined by the winding course of Ecleto Creek and Elm Creek, which carve through the undulating terrain south of the Manford Gas Field. This 1961 record preserves the mid-century industrial and agricultural footprint, showing various gas and water infrastructure including a Flowing Well and the Weinert Reservoir. Local landmarks such as El Negro Ranch and a small Cem near the Gillett townsite provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians. The presence of a Roadside Park along the highway and the Indefinite Boundary line reflect the shifting jurisdictional and recreational layers of the Texas countryside during this period of development.
