2012 Map of Hillsboro West

About this map

The Hillsboro Residential Historic District anchors the southeastern corner of this Hill County landscape, representing a significant concentration of local architecture and history. Just north of the town center, the Hillsboro Cotton Mills stands as a marker of the region's industrial past. The surrounding countryside is defined by a dense network of county roads that connect outlying settlements like Mayfield, Woodbury, and Lovelace. This area is carved by numerous watercourses, including Aquilla Creek and Hackberry Creek, which drain the agricultural land between these communities. Genealogists will find the Woodbury Cemetery and Prairiedale Cemetery valuable for tracing early family lineages in this part of Texas. To the east, Katy Lake provides a distinct water feature near the modern expansion of Hillsboro.
