2019 Map of George West

About this map

The Nueces River winds prominently through this South Texas landscape, serving as the central geographic feature for the community of George West. This 2019 survey illustrates the modern layout of the town, featuring a grid of streets such as Houston St and Travis St, while the surrounding terrain is defined by drainage features like Gamble Gully and Ramie Hollow. Local genealogy and history are well-represented by several burial sites, including Saint George Cem near the town center and the historically significant Old Gussettville Cem and Gussettville Cem located to the southeast. Transportation infrastructure is anchored by the Live Oak County Airport and a network of county roads that navigate the varying elevations between Harris Lake and the river valley. The map documents the persistent rural character of the region, where named hollows like Hailey Hollow and Gerhard Hollow transition into the agricultural and ranching lands of Live Oak County.
