About this map

Lexington serves as the primary hub in this central Texas landscape, where the street grid converges around N Rockdale St and Giddings St. The surrounding countryside in Lee County is defined by a dense network of seasonal waterways, including the winding Middle Yegua Cr and its many tributaries like Two Mile Br and Coupland Br. This 2019 survey captures the rural character of the region, marked by family-named landmarks and essential local infrastructure such as the Cotton Patch Airport and the twin basins of Caraway Lake Number 1 and Caraway Lake Number 2.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of burial sites across the quadrangle, ranging from the Mundine Cem in the north to the German Cem and Germania Cem further south. These sites, along with the small settlement at Center Point, reflect a long-standing pattern of dispersed agricultural communities that have shaped the county since its early development. The map also delineates the Milam and Lee county boundary as it cuts through the creek-dissected terrain near Sandy Cr.
