About this map

The Rio Grande marks the international boundary in this 1923 survey, revealing a landscape of early 20th-century ranching and resource extraction along the border. The settlement of Palafox sits prominently near the river, surrounded by established family-run operations such as Miller Ranch and Alexander Ranch. Further south, industrial activity is evident at Santo Tomas and Minera, where the Rio Grande and Eagle Pass R R provided a critical link for the region's coal and mineral output.
