About this map

Jonesboro sits at the intersection of State Highway 36 and Farm Road 1602, serving as a focal point for the rural landscape where the Leon River meanders through the northeastern corner of the sheet. The terrain is defined by a dense network of seasonal watercourses, including Mustang Cr, Eagle Cr, and Plum Cr, which drain the limestone hills of the Central Texas region.

Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous burial grounds scattered across the countryside, such as Bethel Cem near Orman Cr and Willy Grubb Cem tucked between the forks of Mustang Cr. The presence of Evergreen Cem and Levita Cem further south reflects the dispersed settlement patterns common in this part of Coryell and Hamilton Counties. This 2022 survey documents the transition from ranching lands to smaller residential tracts, while landmarks like J P Brocksch Lake highlight local water management in this part of the Brazos River basin.
