1934 Map of Schattel

USGS Topo · Published 1940

About this map

The San Antonio Uvalde and Gulf RR (Mo Pac) cuts across the southeast corner of this Frio County landscape, illustrating the regional reliance on rail for cattle and agricultural transport in the early 1930s. Small, centralized nodes of rural life appear at Schattel, Thomson, and Miguel, while the presence of Sand Hollow School, Fisher School, and Shallow Wells School suggests a community structure built around widely spaced country school districts. The terrain is defined by the drainage systems of San Miguel Creek and Chiltipin Creek, which carve through the Marshall Hills. Large livestock operations like Keystone Ranch and Goat Ranch anchor the economy, supported by vital water infrastructure such as several Artesian Wells and Howard Lake.
