About this map

The Medina River corridor southwest of San Antonio defines this landscape, where early Texas settlements and family-owned lands meet the expanding infrastructure of the modern era. The community of Macdona serves as a central point, surrounded by a high density of small family and community burial grounds including Becker Cem, Arnold Cem, and the Hermann Sons Cem. These sites, along with San Isidro Cem and Our Lady Queen of Heaven Cem, offer significant primary data for genealogical research in Bexar County.

Water and terrain features like Polecat Cr, Live Oak Slough, and Black Hill illustrate the drainage patterns feeding into the river system. In the southern portion of the map, the settlement of Von Ormy and the land around Atascosa show the transition from agricultural tracts to structured developments, while landmarks like Star Smith Field and Q R Mitchell Lake 2 highlight the varied land use throughout the quadrangle.
