1963 Map of Payton

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Payton community and its surrounding hill country ranchlands are captured here in the early 1960s, centered at the intersection of the Blanco Co Hays Co line. The map reveals a landscape defined by sharp drainage patterns and essential water sources, notably The Narrows along the Blanco River. Local genealogy and settlement history are centered on the Payton Cem and the combined facility of the Mt Horche Ch Payton Sch, illustrating the traditional overlap of faith and education in rural Texas. The terrain is marked by numerous named draws and hollows, such as Chimney Valley and Greens Hollow, while the presence of a Pipeline and several Gravel Pits indicates the encroaching influence of utility infrastructure and local industry upon the ranching geography.
