1949 Map of Round Rock

About this map

Georgetown sits at the confluence of the forks of the San Gabriel River, serving as a focal point for commerce and rail transport in Williamson County during the mid-century. The landscape is defined by the convergence of the Missouri Kansas and Texas and the International Great Northern railroads, which facilitated the movement of goods from rural outposts like Walburg and Weir to larger markets. To the south, the community of Round Rock is depicted alongside its predecessor, Old Round Rock, showing the shift of settlement patterns toward the rail corridor.
