2019 Map of Francitas

About this map

Francitas sits at the northern edge of this coastal prairie landscape, where the town site is structured by a grid including Lincoln Ave and Bullock Rd. This agricultural region is defined by the winding course of East Carancahua Creek, which meanders southward toward the coast, joined by smaller tributaries like Reed Creek. The map documents the low-lying terrain of the Jackson and Matagorda county line, characterized by extensive drainage networks and rural road systems. Local history and genealogy interests are centered on the Francitas Cemetery and the presence of Kubecka Aviation, which reflects the importance of crop-dusting or private flight in this farming corridor. The area is intersected by key transit routes such as Fm 616 and Fm 1862, connecting the small settlement to the wider Gulf Coast region.
