About this map

The town of Weimar serves as the focal point of this South Texas landscape, situated along the Southern Pacific rail line during the mid-1960s. The map illustrates a settled agricultural region defined by several significant watercourses, including the East Fork Navidad River and Clear Creek. The area's social fabric is evidenced by numerous country churches and schools, such as St Cyril Ch and the St Michaels Sch near Dubina. Local family history and genealogy are well-represented by several smaller burial grounds, including Boer Cem and Hehr Cem.

Infrastructure development is visible through the alignment of Interstate 10 and the presence of various extraction sites like Borrow Pit and Gravel Pit. To the south, the New Bielau Community Center and Trinity Ch mark a secondary hub of rural activity near the Lavaca Co line. Revisions from 1981, shown in purple, detail the outward growth of the town's residential areas and facilities like the Sewage Disposal Ponds.
