2016 Map of Ammannsville

About this map

Ammannsville and Holman anchor this Central Texas landscape where the flat river bottoms of the Colorado River meet the rising, dissected uplands of the Fayette and Colorado county line. The map reveals a deeply established rural network of family-named roads and loops, such as Anton Salas Loop and Mullins Prairie Loop, which navigate the various tributaries feeding the river. Genealogists will find significant local history in the presence of several small burial grounds, including Brandt Cem, Bittner Cem, and Shaw Cem. The drainage patterns of Jane Pool Cr and Pecan Cr illustrate the complex natural irrigation of these prairie lands, while the road names like Cattle Trail Ln hint at the area's agricultural and ranching heritage. This survey is a record of a quiet agricultural region defined more by its creek crossings and cemeteries than by urban expansion.
