About this map

Cheapside sits at the heart of this landscape where the Gonzales Co De Witt Co line forms an Indefinite Boundary through the south-central Texas countryside. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Five Mile Creek, Brushy Creek, and Sandies Creek, which feed into local landmarks like Five Mile Lake and Hickory Lake. Evidence of local industry and natural resources is scattered throughout the terrain, noted by several Oil Wells and a Quarry in the western reaches.

For those tracing family roots, several burial grounds and religious centers are documented, including Mt Enon Ch and its adjacent Mt Enon Cem, alongside Rupert Cem and Gates Cem. The topography reveals the transition from creek bottoms to elevated features such as Howell Hollow and the distinct Salt Flat regions near Salt Flat Creek, illustrating the rural character of this region during the mid-twentieth century.
