About this map

Meridian Creek and its complex network of tributaries, including North Prong Meridian Creek and South Prong Meridian Creek, define the topography of this rural Central Texas landscape. Near the settlement of Lanham, the terrain transitions into more pronounced relief with landmarks such as Stroud Mountain and Paul Mountain rising above the creek valleys. The map provides valuable detail for genealogists, identifying burial sites like the Brummett Family Cemetery and Lanham Cemetery.

The border between Bosque and Hamilton counties cuts across the northeastern corner, highlighting the area's jurisdictional history. To the northwest, the vicinity of the Fairy Cemetery near Martin Gap and Long Point shows the scattered nature of rural communities. This 2022 survey effectively documents the modern road network, from FM 219 to narrow routes like County Road 231A, that continues to follow the natural contours of the Central Texas hills.
