About this map

Bald Knob and the prominent heights of Table Mtn anchor this West Texas landscape along the border of Taylor and Runnels counties. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, notably at Table Gap and the isolated peak of Moro Mtn. For genealogists and local historians, the map provides precise locations for the Dewey Cem in the north and Counts Cem further south.

Water sources are vital in this region, with the drainage of Elm Cr cutting through the center while Buffalo Cr and Buck Cr flank the eastern reaches. The presence of Billups Lake and various seasonal branches like Long Br illustrate the hydraulic character of the ranching and agricultural land. A network of county roads, including Co RD 175 and FM 382, connects the scattered rural properties and landmarks across these high plains.
