About this map

Lamkin and Siloam anchor this rural landscape along the upper reaches of the Leon River in Central Texas. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the river and its many tributaries, including Warren Cr, Chappell Cr, and Mesquite Cr. To the southwest, Slick Hill rises above the drainage basin, providing a distinct geographic landmark in an otherwise gently undulating countryside.

A network of county roads and farm-to-market routes, such as FM 1702 and FM 2486, connects these small communities. Near the southern boundary shared by Comanche and Hamilton Counties, the Energy Cem stands as a significant point of interest for genealogists tracing family history in this agricultural corridor. The map captures the quiet, dispersed nature of Texas ranching and farming country as it appeared in the mid-2010s.
