1940 Map of Smithson Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1940

About this map

The Guadalupe River carves a winding path through this portion of the Texas Hill Country, creating dramatic oxbows at Demijohn Bend and Cordova Bend. This 1940 edition, based on surveys from the late 1920s, reveals a landscape of dispersed agricultural communities and isolated rural schools serving the Kendall and Comal county borderlands. Settlements like Fischer Store and Cranes Mill anchor the northern and eastern reaches, while Anhalt and Farmers Hall appear in the southwest, reflecting the region's early 20th-century social hubs.
