1938 Map of Sal Colorada

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Family-named ranching headquarters and remote outposts define the South Texas landscape of Starr County in the late 1930s. The map captures a complex network of traditional landholdings and early energy exploration, anchored by the Sal Colorada Ranch (Hq) and nearby Sal Colorada School. The terrain is marked by a distinctive grid of unimproved roads connecting dozens of established homesteads such as Gran Jenito Ranch, La Gloria Ranch, and Santanita Ranch.
