About this map

Mussman Cem stands as a focal point for family history in this corner of Medina County, situated north of the Elm Slough drainage. The landscape is defined by its complex hydrology, where Hondo Cr and Brier Br thread through the brushy terrain typical of this South Texas region. The small settlement of Biry marks the primary crossroads in the northeast, near where the land begins to rise away from the creek bottoms.

Transportation patterns are dominated by a grid of county roads and farm-to-market routes like FM 2200, reflecting the area's agricultural and ranching foundation. Distinctive low-lying features such as Hog Wallow Slough and Live Oak Cr suggest the seasonal nature of local watercourses, while E Tehuacana Cr drains the western portion of the quadrangle. This 2019 survey provides a precise record of property access and rural infrastructure at the close of the decade.
