About this map

Yancy Cem sits near the crossing of Ranch Rd 334 and the W Nueces River, a point of interest for genealogists and local historians tracking the early ranching families of this territory. The landscape is defined by its dramatic limestone architecture, where Whitecotton Peaks and Housetop Mtn rise above the drainage of the Nueces River system. This area serves as a rugged borderland between Kinney and Uvalde counties, marked by landmarks such as Edwards Waterhole and the sweeping Bell Sow Bend. The presence of small airstrips like Ox Ranch Airport and Los Cerrito Airport reflects the large-scale ranching and private landholdings that characterize this part of the Edwards Plateau. The distribution of named features like Chimney Bluff and Fence Mtn illustrates the reliance on natural topography for navigation in a region where modern roads follow ancient drainage patterns.
