2013 Map of Zella
USGS Topo · Published 2013About this map
Zella stands as the primary namesake settlement in this South Texas landscape, defined by a network of drainage creeks and ranching infrastructure. The area is marked by a series of intermittent waterways including Esperanza Cr, El Sauz Cr, and Rawhide Cr, which feed into local reservoirs such as James Donnell Lake Number 1. This 2013 survey illustrates the continued reliance on traditional water management in the arid Brush Country, evidenced by the San Fernando Windmill and the specific naming of water features like Esperanza Ranch Lake Number 1. Established routes like Miller Rd and Natus Rd connect the scattered ranch holdings, including the prominent Esperanza Ranch and the Franklin Rnch, showing the enduring rural layout of McMullen County.
