2022 Map of Axtell

About this map

The settlement of Axtell anchors the southwestern portion of this landscape, situated along a dense network of local roads and family-named routes such as Homer Young Ln and S Vicha Rd. This rural expanse in Central Texas is defined by the headwaters and tributaries of several prominent waterways, including Tehuacana Cr, Williams Cr, and Cottonwood Cr. The land use is characterized by numerous small impoundments like Cottonbell Lake and Green Briar Lake, which dot the drainage basins between rolling hills. Genealogists will find a significant concentration of burial sites across the quadrangle, ranging from the Mount Calm Cem near the town of Mount Calm in the northeast to smaller, more isolated plots like TK Cem and Olive Branch Cem. The map clearly delineates the tri-county intersection where the borders of McLennan, Hill, and Limestone counties converge.
