1964 Map of Lady Bird Johnson Park

About this map

The Pedernales River winds through this Central Texas landscape, defining the topography of a region marked by rural community centers and family-named infrastructure. In the early 1960s, the Wrede Community House and Morris Ranch stood as primary social and agricultural hubs, while the namesake Lady Bird Johnson Park provided a dedicated public space along the riverbanks. The map reveals a network of family-named transit routes such as Leyendecker Road, Ransleben Road, and Hollmig Lane, reflecting the deep-rooted German-Texan heritage of the area south of Fredericksburg.
