About this map

The Navasota River and its Old Channel define this Limestone County landscape, where the waters broaden into Lake Limestone along the eastern edge of the quadrangle. This recent topographical study captures the rural character of the Old Union community, an area marked by a high density of small family and community burial grounds that offer significant value for genealogical research. Prominent features include the Potter Shop Cem, Hyden Hughes Cem, and Hogan Cem, which sit among the low hills of the Brazos River basin. The terrain is a network of creek drainages such as Montgomery Cr, Dooley Cr, and Blains Cr that feed into the river system. Industrial infrastructure is visible through the Mitchell Energy sites, while the presence of named landmarks like Andrews Hill and Cedar Mound provides continuity with older geographic records of the region.
