Permian Brachiopods of West Texas, Cooper & Grant, Smithsonian Inst. Press, 1972

The publication lists numerous King localities in West Texas. Includes significant help identifying benchmarks, peaks not named on the maps, and ranches. Most of these names are old, circa 1920-40.  

West Texas Brachiopod Location Names.  Describes location naming conventions for ranches, tanks, hills, etc.

King Brachiopod Locations  includes Cooper and Grant's augmented version of King's locations with modern formation names in brackets.

Young Localities

Young used a location notation of the form 'year-sequentialNumber'. These are recorded in the notebooks in the box in the PRC 122 hall on the right hand side labeled "Historic Notebooks, Field Localities, Adkins & Young".

Young also used aerial photographs.  For Travis Co. these are prefixed with 'DMI'.  But I (M. Smith) have been unable to make his measurements line up with known localities.  For more detail, see Z:\DocLib\GeoReferencing\DMI-Young

Travis

30.300010, -97.809700

Wells

Hill of Owls. This is based on the well map. This was W. S. Adkins property in West Lake Hills. I believe it is one of these two hills. The well was completed in 1939. This corresponds to the map in the document showing the wells of Travis Co., so I am currently going with that. Both of these hills are rougly the right height, though I think the elevations circa 1940 were off. The well is supposed to be at 990 ft. but the tops of these hills are around 970.

Cerro de Tecolote 2

Travis

30.289726, -97.812651

Hill of Owls. This is Spillar Hill. This was W. S. Adkins property in West Lake Hills. I believe it is one of these two hills. It was said to have a view of the Capitol and be visible from the UT Tower. This location is closer to then-existing roads (the well was completed in 1939) and there is a community there called Spiller Hill, which is one of the Cerro de Tecolote sites. Both of these hills are roughly the right height.
