1925 Map of Simmons No. 1

USGS Topo · Published 1925

About this map

The confluence of the Frio River and the Nueces River anchors this 1925 survey, showing a landscape of South Texas ranch land and river bottoms just before significant mid-century changes. The boundary between McMullen Co and Live Oak Co bisects the terrain, which is crisscrossed by established travel routes like the Tilden and Three Rivers Road and Wentz Road. Small settlements such as Calliham and Simmons appear as emerging hubs of activity, while the intricate drainage systems of Opossum Creek and Paisano Creek define the natural topography. This sheet is notable for its early use of aerial photography from the Army Air Service, capturing a high level of detail in the river meanders and creek branches that served as vital landmarks for local residents and ranchers.
