About this map

Las Gallinas and Leming anchor the western reaches of this Atascosa County landscape, where the rural character of South Texas remains prominently displayed at the start of the twenty-first century. The map reveals a dense network of family-named roads and landmarks, such as Korus Farmstead and the Longs Farm Airport, reflecting a lineage of land ownership that defines the local geography. Significant for genealogical research, the sheet identifies several remote burial grounds including Saint Joseph Cemetery, Tuminson Cemetery, and Brite Cemetery, often tucked away near the intermittent drainages of Gallinas Creek and Positeus Creek.

To the east, the small communities of Loire and Verdi sit amidst a grid of farm-to-market roads like FM 536 and FM 1784. The southern border is marked by the course of the Atascosa River, while the center of the quadrangle is bisected by a major modern highway corridor. This transition from traditional ranching and farming tracts to contemporary infrastructure is visible through features like Ten Oaks Airport and the precisely mapped property boundaries along Doodle Bug Ln and Jack Poteet Rd.
