About this map

Cibolo Cr carves a winding path through the heart of this landscape, separating the established settlement of La Vernia in the northwest from the historic grounds of Sutherland Springs to the southeast. The area is a significant focal point for genealogical research, containing a high density of burial grounds including the Sutherland Springs Cem, the Polley Family Cem, and the Cruse Colony Cem.

Modern residential development like Las Palomas Country Club Ests sits alongside long-established water sources such as Sulphur Spring and Denning Spring. The terrain is further defined by various tributaries including Dry Hollow Cr, Elm Cr, and Gum Br, which influenced the placement of original homesteads and rural roads. The inclusion of the Islamic Cem and Britton-Robinson Cem reflects the diverse cultural history of this Wilson County region.
