About this map

Tivoli serves as the primary hub of this coastal prairie landscape in the early 1950s, situated near the junction of the Missouri Pacific railroad and the San Antonio River. The area is characterized by an extensive network of levees and water management features essential for cattle ranching and agriculture, including numerous named tanks and wells such as Anaqua Tank, Red Mill Tank, and Langraft Well.

A distinct industrial presence is evident through the designated Gas Field and scattered gas wells, while the natural geography is defined by the winding course of the San Antonio River and its proximity to the Guadalupe River at the county line. Smaller settlements like Maudlowe and features such as Horseshoe Lake provide specific points of interest for those tracing the historical development of Refugio County's rural infrastructure and land use patterns during this post-war era.
