2012 Map of Cherokee

About this map

Cherokee serves as the primary settlement hub for this portion of the Texas Hill Country, situated where Ranch Road 501 and state routes meet. The landscape is defined by its complex hydrology, with numerous seasonal and perennial waterways like Pecan Cr, Wolf Cr, and Wrights Cr draining toward the Little Llano River. For those researching local family histories, the presence of several distinct burial grounds, including the Hanna Cem and Kuykendall Cem, provides vital geographical context for early residents. Near the southern edge of the map, the elevation rises toward Babyhead Mtn, overlooking the Baby Head Cem and the surrounding valley. The road network, including names like Valley Spring Rd and Apache Loop, indicates a rural community structure tied to both ranching and natural topography.
