Page 2 (back) Alfilerea Ariz., good for grazing
When I
googled Alfilerea, the best guess would be that he misspelled Alfilaria defined
as a weed grown for forage in the dry regions of the southwestern U.S. —called

the names he has listed with addresses on these sheets may be tied to the
selling/buying of this property in Brewster County.

in." George Truett
