2010 Map of Elgin West

About this map

The western periphery of Elgin and the small community of Littig anchor this survey of the central Texas landscape. The terrain is defined by the drainage systems of Wilbarger Creek and Cottonwood Creek, which meander through a patchwork of rural landholdings and farm-to-market roads. This era of the region’s development is captured through its network of historic burial grounds, including the Schiller Cemetery to the north and the Youngs Prairie Cemetery further south, providing essential data points for local genealogists. Evidence of small-scale infrastructure and private aviation is found at Bakers Place Airport, while the managed water resources are visible at Sellers Lake and the Sellers Lake Dam. The map traces the early 21st-century suburban expansion and rural continuity through family-named thoroughfares like Albert Voelker Rd and Ballerstedt Rd, reflecting the deep-rooted agricultural heritage of the area.
