About this map

Lytle and Natalia serve as the primary anchors for this region southwest of San Antonio, where the landscape transitions into the brush country of Atascosa and Medina counties. The map captures a complex network of ranch and farm-to-market roads, such as Co RD 6710 and FM 463, that connect dispersed rural homesteads and agricultural tracts. A notable industrial marker is the Coal Mine located between the two main settlements, reflecting the subsurface history of the Lytle area.

Water management is prominent through the Natalia Canal, which diverted water from the Medina River to transform this semi-arid terrain into productive farmland. Genealogists and local historians can find several significant burial sites, including the Lytle Masonic Cem, Concepcion Cem, and Benton City Cem. The topography is defined by the branching tributaries of the Atascosa River, such as the W Prong Atascosa River and the Siesteterra Br Cr, which create the natural drainage patterns across the rolling Texas plains.
