About this map

Owl Ranch and a network of rural county roads anchor this southern Texas landscape as it appeared in the early 21st century. The terrain is defined by a series of intermittent watercourses including Agua Dulce Cr, El Caro Cr, and Tecolote Cr, which drain the brushy plains toward the Gulf Coast. The infrastructure of the area reflects a mix of ranching, military, and energy interests, notably the presence of the Orange Grove Naval Auxiliary Field and the Alfred Oil Field. Local history is preserved at the Dilworth Cem and Amargosa Cem, providing specific points of interest for genealogists tracking family roots in Jim Wells County. The map provides a look at the transition from traditional ranching lands to a more modernized industrial and military landscape, connected by thoroughfares such as FM-624 and Poentes Ranch Rd.
