2016 Map of Gobbler Creek

About this map

Procopius Cem sits at the southern edge of this Wharton County landscape, an area defined by the intricate dendritic drainage systems of the Texas coastal plain. The map documents a predominantly agricultural and ranching environment during the mid-2010s, where seasonal waterways like Chaco Slough and Mott Br cut through a grid of rural county roads. Transport and private infrastructure are notable, particularly the Norris Raun Ranch Airport, which serves the local ranching operations. The terrain is a web of named tributaries including Gobbler Creek, W Mustang Cr, and Lookout Cr. This survey illustrates the persistent rural character of the region, showing how property lines and road networks like FM 1300 RD have been shaped by the low-lying hydrology of the Mustang Creek watershed.
