About this map

The Colorado River carves a winding path through the heart of this Fayette County landscape, defining the geographic character of the region. On its eastern banks, the town of La Grange serves as a focal point, while the smaller settlements of Plum, Prairie Valley, and Wendt are connected by a network of rural routes such as Old Plum Hwy and E State Loop 220. The terrain is marked by distinctive elevations and landings, including the prominent Chalk Bluff and Monument Hill, as well as the floodplain area of Rabbs Prairie.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several family and community burial sites, such as Mantan Cem, Taylor Cem, and Williams Cem. The map reflects a mix of traditional agricultural land and modern infrastructure, evidenced by the Fayette Regional Air Center Airport situated near Hill Cr. Along the river, features like Clement Island and Mount Maria Spring highlight the importance of water resources to the local topography and settlement patterns of central Texas.
