About this map

Hallettsville serves as the central hub of this South Texas landscape, where the Lavaca River winds through a network of creeks and agricultural tracts. This 2010 survey illustrates a community deeply tied to its land and history, evidenced by the numerous burial sites such as the Pagel Settlement Cemetery and the Sacred Heart Cemetery. The presence of both the Old County Farm Cemetery and New County Farm Cemetery along the riverbanks provides a specific look at the local civic heritage of Lavaca County.

Industrial activity is clearly defined by the Hallettsville Oil Field and the Word Oil Field, marking the extraction economy that exists alongside rural settlements like Williamsburg and Good Hope. The map details a transition from the structured street grid of the town center to the outlying farm-to-market roads, such as FM 957 and FM 530, which connect the scattered homesteads and local landmarks like Light Chapel.
