About this map

Dublin and its surrounding Erath County countryside are defined by a complex network of small waterways and engineered water management sites. The landscape is carved by numerous tributaries including Cottonwood Cr, Resley Cr, and the branching forks of N Fork Little Green Cr. This 2016 survey documents an extensive series of reservoirs managed by the Soil Conservation Service, such as Site 15 Reservoir and Site 17 Reservoir, illustrating the region's historical commitment to soil stability and flood control in a terrain dominated by drainage basins.

Outside the primary town center, smaller community nodes like Harbin and Purves anchor the rural road network. Genealogists and local historians will find several key landmarks preserved on the map, including Live Oak Cem and Heavenly Branch Cem. The map also captures the local transportation infrastructure, from the Dublin Municipal Airport to the various county roads that thread together the disparate homesteads and farming operations of the Texas Cross Timbers region.
