1969 Map of Twin Hollow

About this map

Hondo Creek carves a significant path through this landscape, flanked by notable landmarks like Eagle Bluff and Barnes Bluff. The 1969 topography reveals an area defined by its water sources and high points, such as Bond Flag Mountain and the distinct Ney Cave. The presence of named waterholes, including Wide Crossing Waterhole, Barnes Bluff Waterhole, and Two Pecan Waterhole, suggests the critical importance of reliable water for ranching or travel in this portion of the Texas Hill Country. The terrain is further detailed by drainage systems like Bandera Creek and West Verde Creek, while a Gaging Sta along the creek indicates the ongoing management of these vital water resources. The county line between Bandera and Medina Counties divides the northern and southern sections of the map, providing a clear reference for genealogical researchers looking at family landholdings across these borders.
