About this map

Bergheim and the northern reaches of Fair Oaks Ranch define this Central Texas landscape at the edge of the Hill Country. The terrain is marked by significant hydrological features including the winding Cibolo Creek and the headwaters of Pleasant Valley Creek. The map documents a blend of established ranching heritage and modern residential development, with numerous ridges and pass points like Summit Pass and Falcon Point overlooking the limestone drainages.

Genealogists will find particular value in the scattered burial grounds that dot the countryside, including Bergheim Cemetery, Saur Cemetery, Kruckenmeier Cemetery, and Lex Cemetery. These sites, along with landmarks like Indian Bluff and the natural pool at Georges Hole, provide a detailed record of local family history and the geographic anchors that have remained constant as the area transitioned from rural ranch land toward suburban expansion near Bulverde.
