2019 Map of Covington

About this map

Covington and the surrounding prairie of the Johnson Co and Hill Co line are defined by a network of rural roads and creek drainages in this modern survey. The landscape is dotted with ancestral burial sites including Hart Cem, Parker Cem, Kinard Cem, and Ross Cem, which serve as vital markers for genealogical research in this part of Texas. North of the community of Parker, the terrain is punctuated by small private landing strips such as Birdnest Airport and Cow Pasture Airport, reflecting the region's agricultural and general aviation character. The hydrology is dominated by the winding paths of Aquilla Cr and Mustang Cr, while Brushy Knob provides one of the few distinct topographic elevations in the area. This survey captures the enduring rural settlement pattern of the region, where family names are often preserved in the local road designations and small communities.
