About this map

The South Llano River carves a deep path through this portion of the Texas Hill Country, defining the landscape of the mid-1920s. Centered around the remote settlement of Telegraph, the terrain is marked by a complex network of draws and creeks, including Little Paint Creek and Salina Creek, which feed into the main river channel. This survey, conducted by W.B. Brewer for the State of Texas Board of Water Engineers, highlights the critical water sources of the era, most notably the Seven Hundred Springs located near the boundary between Kimble and Edwards Counties. Local civic life is anchored by rural landmarks such as Evergreen School and Paint Rock School, while the Junction Road serves as the primary artery for travel through this dissected limestone plateau. The presence of these specific schools and named springs provides essential spatial data for genealogists and local historians tracing the early twentieth-century development of the western Edwards Plateau.
