2010 Map of Dilworth

About this map

Little New York and the surrounding Gonzales County countryside are defined by a network of small creeks and managed water resources. This landscape, as it appeared in 2010, shows a pattern of rural settlement anchored by historic locations like Dilworth, Saturn, and Hickston. A notable concentration of dammed water bodies, including Kelley Lake Number 1 and Mercer Lake Number 1, highlights the importance of water management in this agricultural region. Local genealogy and history are preserved at sites like the Saint James Cemetery and through distinct terrain markers such as Pettit Prairie Flats and the Comanche Crossing over Peach Creek. The terrain is characterized by the confluence of numerous watercourses, with Sandy Fork and Denton Creek carving through the prairie to join larger systems, while named landmarks like Pin Oak Mound provide localized relief in the topography.
