2019 Map of Alexander

About this map

The community of Alexander serves as the focal point of this central Texas landscape, where the agricultural and ranching traditions of Erath County are evident in the dense network of rural routes like FM 914 and Co RD 282. The terrain is defined by the drainage basins of the N Bosque River and its numerous tributaries, including Green Cr and Little Green Cr, which carve a rolling path through the local topography. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of several smaller burial grounds that mark the heritage of local families and settlements, such as Bowman Ridge Cem to the north and Clairette Cem to the east. Modern land use is further highlighted by private infrastructure like the J F Ranch Airport, reflecting the continued importance of large-scale ranching operations in this portion of the Cross Timbers region.
