1968 Map of Palomas Ranch SW

About this map

Deep in the South Texas brush country during the late 1960s, the boundary between Jim Hogg Co and Brooks Co bisects a landscape defined by ranching infrastructure and water access. The map reveals a sophisticated network of water sources essential for livestock in this semi-arid environment, characterized by numerous named windmills and artesian wells. Notable sites include the Rayosa Well (Flowing) and Lindero Well (Flowing), which indicate naturally pressurized groundwater, a critical resource for local landholders.
