1929 Map of Smithson Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Guadalupe River snakes through the center of this Hill Country landscape, defining a series of tight river loops including Demijohn Bend, Smiths Bend, and Cordova Bend. Surveyed in the late 1920s, the map reveals a sparsely populated ranching and farming region where rural education was localized in small campuses like Martin School, Rebecca Creek School, and Ullnau School. The presence of Farmers Hall near Anhalt and Fischer Store in the northeast corner points to the vital social and commercial hubs of these German-Texan communities.
