1980 Map of Regency

About this map

The Colorado River carves a winding path through this portion of central Texas, serving as the natural boundary between Mills Co and San Saba Co. The landscape is defined by its dramatic relief, where the broad floor of Hanna Valley is overlooked by prominent elevations like Hanna Mountain and Round Mountain. In 1980, this area remained largely rural, centered around the small settlement of Regency and the Ridge Community Hall to the north. Smaller communities and landmarks like Ratler in the south and the Hollis Cem provide essential anchor points for genealogists researching family ties in the region. Numerous creeks including Flatrock Creek, Hog Creek, and Mesquite Creek feed into the river, while several Gravel Pits indicate the local extractive activity that shaped the terrain during this era.
