About this map

Kerrville and the neighboring community of Legion define this section of the Texas Hill Country, where suburban expansion meets traditional ranch lands. The geography is marked by a series of named valleys and elevations, including the prominent Tivy Mountain and the distinctive Haddenbrock Hill to the southeast. Family history is anchored by several local burial grounds, such as the Garden of Memories Cemetery near Quinlan Creek and the Tivy Mountain Cemetery.

Water plays a critical role in the landscape's layout, with Cypress Creek and its many tributaries, including Turkey Bottom Creek and Rattlesnake Creek, carving through the terrain. The map details a transition from dense street grids in the city center to the sprawling ranch roads and named draws like Wade Hollow and Teigmann Valley. This documentation captures the modern footprint of Cypress Springs and Ravenhead as they integrated into the larger Kerr County infrastructure.
