1964 Map of Wilson Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Wilson Ranch serves as the primary landmark in this ranching landscape straddling the Medina Co Frio Co line during the mid-1960s. The terrain is defined by an extensive network of drainage systems, including the southward-flowing Seco Creek, Squirrel Creek, and the prominent Hondo Creek. A notable reliance on groundwater is evident through the numerous named water sources scattered across the brushland, such as Javelin Windmill, Slaughter Windmill, and Tacho Windmill. These features, alongside isolated Gravel Pit operations, illustrate a sparsely populated region dedicated to large-scale land holdings and livestock. The map also records several other minor waterways like Live Oak Creek and Tehuacana Creek, which feed into the larger creek systems that dictate the movement and settlement patterns of this South Texas borderland.
