About this map

Fort Sam Houston occupies a massive portion of the central landscape, showing the dense military infrastructure and housing patterns of the early 1950s. Surrounding the base, the expansion of San Antonio is evident through the burgeoning residential grids of Alamo Heights, Olmos Park, and Terrell Hills. The map serves as a vital record for genealogists, as it meticulously plots numerous burial grounds including the National Cemetery, St Marys Cem, and Eastview Cemetery.
