2010 Map of Komensky

About this map

Novohrad, Komensky, and Witting serve as the primary focal points for this rural pocket of Lavaca County, where the landscape is defined by the complex drainage network of the Lavaca River and its numerous tributaries. The map details a pastoral environment shaped by the North Fork Lavaca River and Smothers Creek, showing a dense grid of county roads that connect isolated farmsteads and historic community centers. Genealogists will find particular value in the locations of the Baursville Cemetery and Breslau Cemetery, which remain as physical markers of the area's early Central European settlement patterns. This 2010 survey reflects the enduring agricultural character of the region, where the winding courses of Liveoak Creek and Big Rocky Creek continue to dictate the placement of local infrastructure and property boundaries in a landscape largely unchanged by modern urban expansion.
