About this map

Chilton and Golinda anchor this Central Texas landscape where the McLennan and Falls County line trends southwest to northeast. The map documents a predominantly agricultural region defined by an intricate network of waterways, including the winding Brazos River and Cow Bayou, which carve through the terrain. Small rural communities like Satin and North Prairie are connected by a web of farm-to-market roads and county routes, illustrating the persistent settlement patterns of this ranching and farming heartland.

Local landmarks such as the Cedar Valley Cem and the Soil Conservation Service Site 30 Reservoir provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians. The varied drainage systems, from Bull Hide Cr in the north to Deer Cr and Little Deer Cr in the south, highlight the importance of water management in the region's development. This survey provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure as it existed in the late 2010s.
