While these are not really quality images, because you can't magnify them and see all the details, they do give you a rough idea of what the area looked like in the early days of the county. The oldest, from around 1850, doesn't show Kerr County or Kerrville; the nearest marked landmark is Bandera Pass. These came from a document Jan Wilkinson found online. Many thanks to Jan for sharing these with all of us. Click

Map of Kerr County. This map is dated 1850 in the document, but I doubt that
since Kendall County is shown, and it wasn't created until 1862. |
