2019 Map of Kendalia

About this map

Kendalia serves as the central hub of this Texas Hill Country landscape, situated near the intersection of FM 473 and FM 3551 N. The geography is defined by a dense network of canyons and watercourses, including Coyote Canyon, Carlisle Canyon, and Heiligmann Canyon, which drain toward the prominent Guadalupe River in the south. Genealogists will find a high density of family burial grounds scattered across the terrain, from Jones Cem and Knuepper Cem in the north to Richter Cem near the riverbanks. The settlement pattern follows the winding paths of Curry Cr and its tributaries, with local history preserved in names like Herbst - Patton Cem and Lawhon Cem. The presence of several named canyons and the elevation at Round Mtn illustrate a transition from upland plateaus to the river valley floor, where KWW Ranch Lake Number 1 provides a rare contained water feature among the natural seasonal creeks.
