About this map

The King Co - Stonewall Co boundary line bisects this West Texas landscape, where the terrain is defined by a network of seasonal drainages and cattle ranching infrastructure. Gilkerson Cem serves as a primary point of interest for genealogists and local historians, situated in an area marked by numerous livestock watering features such as Brushy Tank and Negro Tank.

Water management is central to the land use here, shown through the various branches and creeks like Brushy Cr, Bob Cr, and Pen Br. Ranching heritage is evidenced by naming conventions for roads and water bodies, including Niblo Ranch Rd and Parramore Ranch Lake. The map details a sparse road network, primarily consisting of county routes like Co RD 448 and Co RD 427, which provide access to the remote properties along this county border.
