About this map

Walkers Creek and Big Elm Creek define the agricultural landscape north of Cameron, as shown in this 2019 survey of Milam County. The map documents a rural network of farm-to-market roads and county routes connecting several small settlements and family-named landmarks. Ben Arnold and Silver City appear as primary nodes, while the southern edge transition into the residential and industrial fringes of Cameron, including the Quinif area and Cameron Municipal Airpark.

Genealogists will find a high density of small cemeteries scattered across the drainage basins, including Elm Grove Cem, Clarkson Cem, and Vogel-Sang Cem. This modern topographic record captures the enduring rural character of the region, from the Yellow Bluff terrain feature to named water bodies like Cobb Lake and Knight Lake. The map also preserves the location of Indian Springs and numerous creeks like Maysfield Creek that have shaped the settlement patterns of this Central Texas corridor.
