2012 Map of Knob Hill

About this map

N Paluxy River and the S Paluxy River frame a landscape of family-named cemeteries and agricultural roads in Erath County. This 2012 survey documents the rural character surrounding the Knob Hill settlement, where the terrain is marked by the eponymous Knob Hill summit and the Knob Hill Cem. Small water bodies such as Terrell Lake and the paired Bonham Lake Number 1 and Bonham Lake Number 2 indicate a managed water system typical of Texas ranching country. For genealogists, the map preserves the exact locations of burial grounds including Morton Chapel Cem, Bethel Cem, Wright Cem, and Smith Springs Cem. These landmarks, along with many county roads like Farm-To-Market Road 3025, show the enduring grid of local travel and community life in this part of north-central Texas.
