2019 Map of Hanover

About this map

Hanover serves as the central point of this Milam County landscape, where the terrain is defined by the winding course of the Little River and a dense network of creek drainages. For genealogists and local historians, this survey is particularly notable for the high density of small family and community burial grounds that dot the countryside, including the Oxsheer-Smith Cem, the curiously named Hanged Man's Cem, and the Coxes Providence Community Cem. The map illustrates a predominantly rural, agricultural structure where connectivity relies on farm-to-market roads like FM 2095 and named local routes such as 22 Hills Rd. Water sources are abundant throughout the quadrangle, with Beaver Springs and numerous branches like Yellow Rabbit Br and Alligator Cr cutting through prominent elevation features like Wilson Hill and the distinctive Eland Rough.
