About this map

The Brazos River forms the northeastern boundary of this Milam County landscape, a region defined by a dense network of creek branches and deeply cut hollows. Small rural communities like Hix and Goodwill anchor the road system, which includes a mix of Farm-to-Market roads and local county routes. The terrain is marked by significant topographical features such as Whiskey Hollow, Coopers Hollow, and Bailey Hollow, which channel water toward major tributaries like Cedar Creek and Little Cedar Creek.

Genealogists will find value in the presence of the Lawson Cemetery in the north and the Hix Cemetery near the center of the sheet. Modern developments such as the Cedar Creek Addition appear alongside older infrastructure like the Young Lake Dam. The intricate drainage pattern, featuring named branches such as Pigpen Branch and Damn Branch, illustrates the complex hydrologic character of this part of East-Central Texas.
