About this map

Comyn and the smaller settlement of Roch define this rural landscape in Erath County, where agriculture and water management shape the terrain. The eastern reaches of Proctor Lake dominate the southwestern corner, fed by the Leon River and a network of local tributaries including Mill Br and Walker Cr. The influence of the Soil Conservation Service is evident through several managed reservoirs, such as Soil Conservation Service Site 12 Reservoir and Soil Conservation Service Site 25 Reservoir, which help control the drainage of Cow Cr and Sowells Cr.

Family and community history is preserved in local burial grounds like Cow Creek Cem, Hanson Cem, and Proctor Cem. These sites, along with the Smith Flying Service Airport, are connected by a grid of farm-to-market roads and county lanes such as White Side Rd and Dry Weather Rd, illustrating the transition between the rolling prairie and the critical water infrastructure of the Texas Cross Timbers region.
