1963 Map of McKegan Draw NE

About this map

Lehne Ranch and several other family-owned estates define the rural landscape at the crossroads of Kimble, Menard, Sutton, and Schleicher Counties. This early 1960s survey documents a ranching-heavy economy characterized by vast acreage and scattered infrastructure. The local community center revolves around the Murr Ch, while specialized landmarks like a Landing Area near the Lopez Ranch and a Gravel Pit suggest the dual importance of aerial access and local materials for road maintenance in this territory. Numerous draws and waterways, including West Bear Creek and Middle Copperas Creek, provide the essential drainage for the Edwards Plateau terrain. The presence of multiple pipelines crossing the county lines highlights the role of energy infrastructure in this sparsely populated region of Texas.
