2019 Map of Gatesville East

About this map

Gatesville sits at the western edge of this Coryell County landscape, where the Leon River winds through the terrain. The 2019 survey documents a high concentration of established burial sites, including the Odd Fellows Cem, Oak Grove Cem, and Restland Cem, which serve as vital touchstones for genealogical research in the area. The map illustrates a transition from the urban grid of the county seat into the undulating hills of South Mountain, defined by a network of farm-to-market roads and creeks like Turnover Cr and N Greenbriar Cr. Beyond the residential developments, the landscape includes specialized infrastructure such as the Longhorn Auxiliary Landing Strip and the McGregor Airport, reflecting the region's aviation and military connections. Scattered family-named cemeteries like Powell Cem and Brown Cem remain preserved across the rural sectors, marking the sites of early homesteads and communities.
