About this map

Lawn sits at the southwestern edge of this landscape, where the local road network converges near the banks of Jim Ned Cr. The area is defined by a sophisticated system of water management, evidenced by several large reservoirs including Soil Conservation Service Site 17 Reservoir and Soil Conservation Service Site 15 Reservoir, which capture runoff from the various creek branches that dissect the terrain. These man-made features highlight the region's adaptation to the semi-arid conditions of the Texas plains.

Local history and genealogy researchers can locate the Cope Cem centrally positioned between Gray Br and the Abilene-Coleman Rd. The map also captures the recreational and industrial character of the land, from the waters of Santa Fe Lake and Lake Lawn to the presence of Oil Field Rd in the north. The boundary between Taylor Co and Callahan Co runs along the eastern margin, marking the transition between these two West Texas jurisdictions.
