1965 Map of Los Ebanos NW

About this map

The Rio Grande creates a sharp, northward-winding loop at the international boundary between the United States and Mexico in this mid-1960s survey. This specific river bend features Valadeces Banco No 130, a piece of land defined by the river's shifting course along the border of Texas and Tamaulipas. The landscape is sparse, with the map focusing almost entirely on the topographical nuances of the riverbank and the immediate shoreline. A solitary Well is the primary evidence of human infrastructure in this particular pocket of Starr County, suggesting a remote agricultural or resource-extraction site. This survey captures the precise position of the river and its associated banco before subsequent natural or engineered changes could alter the border's character in this section of the Rio Grande Valley.
