About this map

The western edges of Fredericksburg anchor this 2022 survey, illustrating the modern expansion of this Gillespie County seat. Local heritage is preserved in sites like the Old Catholic Cem and Saint Marys Memorial Cem, while newer residential developments such as Schlaudt Hills and Hotopp Hills indicate recent growth patterns. The landscape is defined by the limestone-cut drainages of Barons Cr and Live Oak Cr, punctuated by high points like Schneider Hill.

Rural land use is characterized by named ranch roads and the Carter Ranch Airport, highlighting the aviation and agricultural infrastructure of the Texas Hill Country. Genealogists may find value in the location of the smaller Schuch Cem near the northern boundary, as well as the Saint Barnabas Episcopal Columbarium within the city limits. Water sources like Guenther Spring and Douglass Lake serve as key landmarks for understanding the area's hydrology and historical settlement.
