2019 Map of Edgar

About this map

Edgar and Stratton sit within a landscape of rolling terrain and seasonal watercourses in DeWitt County. This modern survey illustrates a rural Texas environment defined by agricultural ranching and family lineages, evidenced by the numerous cemeteries including Evergreen Cem, Leesville Cem, and Alexander Cem. Water management is central to the land's utility, with features like Big Tank, Windmill Tank, and Flying F Ranch Lake supporting local operations. The map details an intricate network of rural routes such as Old Cuero Rd and Matthew Adams Rd, which connect these small settlements across a drainage system feeding into Cuero Cr, Irish Cr, and Little Brushy Cr. This geographic arrangement reveals how contemporary land use continues to follow the historic paths and water access points established by earlier generations in the Petty Hollow area.
