2022 Map of Gobbler Creek

About this map

W Mustang Cr and its various tributaries, including Middle Mustang Cr and E Mustang Cr, define the drainage patterns of this Wharton County landscape. The area is characterized by a dense grid of rural roads and large agricultural tracts typical of the Texas coastal plains. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, Saint Procopius Cem serves as a significant local landmark for genealogical researchers, while the Norris Raun Ranch Airport provides a distinct navigational point in the west. The presence of Chaco Slough and named branches like Mott Br and Coon Br indicates a low-lying, water-rich environment where natural drainage channels weave between cultivated fields and farmsteads. This network of small waterways and county roads reveals a persistent rural settlement pattern that has remained centered on ranching and agriculture into the 21st century.
