2010 Map of Carlton

About this map

Carlton stands as the central hub of this Hamilton County landscape, situated at the junction of several farm-to-market roads and local routes. The surrounding terrain is defined by a dense network of seasonal and perennial waterways, including the winding Gilmore Creek, Wolf Prong Creek, and Rocky Creek. These drainage patterns reflect the agricultural character of the region, where land management is evidenced by the Soil Conservation Service Site 24 Reservoir and its associated Soil Conservation Service Site 24 Dam to the west. Local history is anchored by several burial grounds dispersed throughout the countryside, such as Turribow Cemetery to the north, Altman Cemetery in the northeast, and Midway Cemetery near the western boundary. The map illustrates a rural Texas environment where transportation relies on a grid of county roads, like Co RD 128 and Co RD 272, connecting isolated farmsteads to the township.
