Newspaper article Re: Albert Zeller buying the Tonne/Toane Ranch in 1942

[regdeleon]

I came across a newspaper article from 1942 describing my second great uncle, Albert Zeller buying “a part of the Tonne ranch”. The ranch is described as follows:
located 20 miles north of San Antonio.
Consists of about 118 acres
Includes the old headquarters, home built of stone, two stories w/porch
built in 1872

The property in 1942 was in good condition and had a paved road, electricity and mail delivery. The article says that the Zellers planned to live in the house and also operated a business in New Braunfels.

I was wondering if any one knows anything about the “Tonne Ranch” and if the house still exists today. Also, any information on my second great uncle and aunt, Albert and Thekla Zeller.

Thank you in advance for your help.
