1956 Map of Cherokee

About this map

Cherokee serves as the primary hub on this mid-century survey, situated at the intersection of local routes near the northern edge of the map. To the south, the landscape transitions toward Babyhead Mountain and the settlement of Babyhead, where an indefinite boundary separates San Saba and Llano Counties. The area is defined by a dense network of seasonal drainages, including Cherokee Creek and Babyhead Creek, which feed toward the Little Llano River in the east. Genealogy and local history researchers will find several family and community landmarks, such as Kuykendall Cem and Hanna Cem. A notable point of transition is visible at the Babyhead Sch (Aband), reflecting shifts in rural education as local centers of activity consolidated toward the High Sch in Cherokee.
