1961 Map of Hye

About this map

The LBJ Ranch and the small settlement of Hye anchor the northern reaches of this Hill Country landscape, where the Pedernales River winds through the valley. Local life in the early 1960s is evidenced by a network of family-named ranches and communal centers, including the Rocky Community and the village of Albert. Cultural landmarks like the Old Junction School (Historical) and Pleasant Hill Sch point to the area's educational history, while the Johnson Cem and American Ch mark the spiritual and ancestral hubs of the community. The terrain is defined by the headwaters and forks of Rocky Creek, Williams Creek, and the West Prong Big Creek, which carve through the limestone-rich hills of Gillespie and Blanco counties. Rural infrastructure, such as Maenius Road and a cross-country pipeline, illustrates the local economy and movement through this cattle-ranching region.
