1950 Map of Mullin

About this map

Mullin stands at the center of this mid-century portrait of Central Texas, where the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe railroad corridor dictated the local economy and settlement pattern. The landscape is defined by a series of prominent elevations, including Turkey Peak Mountain, Long Pompey Mtn, and Trigger Mtn, which separate the various drainage basins of Pompey Creek and Mullin Creek. To the south, the map reveals the historical site of Williams Ranch, once a significant early frontier settlement before the railroad bypassed it in favor of newer townsites.
