1968 Map of Pflugerville East

About this map

Pflugerville sits at the western edge of this agricultural landscape in Travis and Williamson counties, where the Missouri Kansas Texas railroad cuts a diagonal line toward the northeast. The map illustrates a rural Texas economy transitioning from traditional farming to decentralized community hubs, anchored by landmark structures like Germania Hall and Richland Ch. This era of development is marked by an extensive network of family-named country roads, including Priem Lane, Pfluger Lane, and Kelly Lane, which follow the contours of the drainage systems for Wilbarger Creek and Gilleland Creek. Small, established clusters such as Cele and New Sweden serve as the primary social centers, while the presence of numerous family burial grounds, such as the Pfluger Cem and Gregg Cem, provides deep genealogical evidence for researchers tracing the early settlement of these farming prairie lands.
