About this map

The Brazos River forms the eastern boundary of this Southeast Texas landscape, where the town of Bellville serves as a primary hub. The map reveals a dense network of rural roads connecting scattered family and community sites, including the Coshatte Agricultural Society Hall and the Bellville Yards. A significant number of burial grounds, such as Ivys Creek Cemetery, Pilgrims Rest Cemetery, and Oak Knoll Cemetery, are documented throughout the quadrangle, providing essential geographic markers for genealogical research in Austin County.

Industrial activity is evident in the northeast near the Racoon Bend Oil Field, while the southern portion is defined by the winding paths of Mill Creek and Deadman Creek. The settlement of Burleigh sits near the river crossing at Ferry Rd, reflecting the historical importance of waterway access in the region's development. Other waterways like Piney Creek and Ives Creek carve through the agricultural and oil-producing terrain.
