About this map

Cibolo Creek meanders through this South Texas landscape, defining much of the border between Guadalupe and Bexar Counties. The settlement pattern is anchored by the Southern Pacific railroad line, which runs through the town of Marion, while Schertz and Cibolo occupy the western portion of the sheet. Between these centers lies the rural community of Haeckerville, characterized by its connection to local thoroughfares like Haeckerville Road and Arizpe Road.

The terrain transitions from the residential developments in the west to more open country in the east and south, where agriculture and extraction are evident via numerous Gravel Pits. Water resources are significant here, with Santa Clara Creek and Womans Hollow Creek draining the region toward the primary waterway at Crescent Bend. Social and religious life is marked by local landmarks such as St Paul Church, providing a clear view of the area's infrastructure and community layout before the turn of the century.
