2010 Map of Cedar Lane

About this map

Hawkinsville and Gainesmore sit along the winding path of Caney Creek, a landscape defined by the low-lying coastal plains of Matagorda County. This 2010 survey shows the area's transition from agricultural use to modern rural homesteading, with a dense network of farm-to-market roads like Farm Market 457 and FM 521 Rd connecting scattered communities. Notable water features such as Williams Lake, Cannon Lake, and the meandering Cedar Lake Creek illustrate the hydrologic character of the region. Local history is anchored by the Jaden Cemetery in the northeast and the Fay Ranch Airport near Cedar Lane. The map provides a detailed view of family-named roads and drainage features like Dead Slough and Ash Flat, which speak to the area's long-standing relationship with the periodic floodwaters and the bayou systems of the Texas Gulf Coast.
