About this map

Ranching and early petroleum development define this South Texas landscape on the eve of World War II. The settlement of Randado serves as the central hub for a vast network of family landholdings, including De La Garza Ranch, Lopez Ranch, and San Rafael Ranch. The map captures the significant infrastructure of the Texas oil boom, showing the Randado Oil Field and Las Animas Oil Field alongside the Buffalo Oil Co. and numerous water tanks essential for sustaining both cattle and industry in this arid environment.
