2022 Map of Clairette

About this map

Clairette and Duffau anchor this rural Texas landscape where Erath, Bosque, and Hamilton counties meet. The terrain is defined by the drainage networks of the North Bosque River and its tributaries, including Round Hole Br and Green Cr. This modern survey reveals a persistent pattern of rural settlement, with family history sites like Duffau Cem, Byrd Cem, and Millerville Cem preserved alongside active ranch roads and private airfields like the Ray Smith Farm Airport. The map shows a clear division between the winding watercourses of Little Duffau Cr and the structured grid of county roads that navigate the local topography. It captures the quiet character of the central Texas prairie-and-timber transition, showing how modern transit such as US-281 overlays historical crossroads.
