About this map

Hebbronville serves as the focal point of this late 1960s South Texas landscape, where the Texas Mexican railway cuts a diagonal path through Jim Hogg and Duval counties. The town's civic heart is anchored by the Courthouse and a prominent High School, while the surrounding brushland is defined by a network of ranching infrastructure. Numerous named water sources and landmarks, such as Yeguas Windmill and Las Flores Windmill No 1, point to the importance of groundwater in this semi-arid region.

The presence of the Dusty Downs Racetrack, the Rodeo Ground, and the Gruy Landing Strip suggests a community with established recreational and transport hubs during this era. Genealogists will find significant value in the clear demarcation of the Old Hebbronville Cem, New Hebbronville Cem, and Greenhill Cem, which document the settlement's long-term residence along the banks of Noriacitas Creek and Baluarte Creek.
