1963 Map of Henly

About this map

Henly serves as the central settlement on this Hays County landscape, positioned where the Blanco Co and Hays Co line divides the rolling terrain. The map captures a detailed rural network of family landholdings and small burial grounds, including the Middlebrooks Cem and Sprouse Cem. The drainage pattern is particularly dense, defined by the headwaters of Onion Creek and its many tributaries like Mustang Branch and Grooms Branch. Prominent elevations such as Gainor Mountain and Roundtree Mountain rise above the creek valleys, while a Landing Strip and local paths like Holder Lane indicate the infrastructure of the early 1960s. This survey is a critical resource for genealogists, as it meticulously plots numerous small family plots such as Dye Cem and McKellar Cem that might otherwise be overlooked.
