Map
Austin Area Land Grants, ca. 1870
A consolidated map of land grants in the Austin and West Lake area, compiled circa 1870 from the patents recorded in Travis County. Shows the Davenport tract and adjacent holdings before any subdivision.
This map predates incorporation by nearly a century. It compiles the original land patents — granted to settlers, veterans, and rangers — into a single readable reference for the area that would later become West Lake Hills, Rollingwood, and the surrounding Eanes ISD attendance zone. The Davenport tract is shown along the bluffs above the Colorado.
