1926 Map of Snyder 1-a

About this map

The Double Mountain Fork Brazos River carves a winding path through this West Texas landscape, where the borders of Kent, Stonewall, and Fisher counties meet. Surveyed in 1926 by T.F. Murphy, the terrain is defined by a dense network of erosional features such as Adair Canyon and Tiger Canyon, which reveal the complex drainage patterns of the Brazos watershed before large-scale modernization. The presence of the County Line School and the Canadian Highway points to a rural infrastructure supporting scattered communities in the Longhorn Valley. This map represents an early application of aerial photography by the Air Corps, U.S. Army, to supplement traditional ground topography, capturing the fine details of local landmarks like Rough Creek and Poteet Canyon.
