About this map

Cedar Springs and Pleasant Grove anchor this agricultural landscape in Falls County, where the meandering Brazos River creates a complex network of waterways including Wild Horse Slough and Poole Cr. The region is defined by a deep-rooted rural cemetery system, featuring family and community burial grounds such as China Grove Cem, Gravel Hill Cem, and Broadus Cem. These sites, often located at the end of winding county roads like Co RD 406a and Co RD 305, offer significant value for genealogists tracing early Texas families.

The topography is marked by numerous seasonal drainages like Hog Cr and Cottonwood Br that feed into the larger river basin. Distinctive landmarks such as The Falls on the river and Lake Winiwaca near the eastern border illustrate the area's natural hydrology. The dense grid of secondary routes, including FM 2027 and FM 712, connects these dispersed settlements and historical sites, reflecting the long-standing infrastructure of this central Texas farming district.
