2016 Map of Gholson

About this map

The Brazos River carves a deep, winding path through this central Texas landscape, creating a natural boundary between the communities of Gholson and the rural uplands of Rogers Hill. This map captures a mosaic of agriculture and small-town settlement, defined by numerous family-named roads and drainage systems such as Aquilla Creek and White Rock Creek. For those researching local history, the area is rich with established burial grounds, including Jenkins Cem, Crump Cem, and Chalk Bluff Cem. The presence of small aviation sites like Womack Farm Airport and Tigerbird Field reflects the open, low-density character of the land north of Waco and Lacy-Lakeview. The intricate network of farm-to-market roads like FM 933 suggests a community tightly linked by rural transit routes and seasonal creek beds.
