2022 Map of Jayell

About this map

Jayell and the eastern outskirts of Baird anchor this Callahan County landscape, where the modern corridor of Interstate 20 intersects a network of county roads. The terrain is defined by the drainage systems of Hubbard Cr and Sheep Cr, which carve through the undulating topography typical of this part of Texas. Evidence of historical infrastructure and water management is visible in several named reservoirs, most notably Baird Railroad Lake, a site reflecting the region's historical reliance on rail-transport water supplies. To the south, Mexia Creek and Smith Lake provide additional landmarks for local researchers. The map details a transition from the semi-urban edges of Baird into a rural expanse crisscrossed by routes like FM 2228 and Finley Rd, documenting the contemporary land use and water resources of the area.
