2019 Map of Lincoln

About this map

The community of Lincoln anchors this Lee County landscape, situated at a crossroad of local routes and the upper reaches of Elm Cr. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of the Middle Yegua Cr and W Yegua Cr, which drain the low-lying areas between distinctive rises like Buzzard Knobs. This 2019 survey documents a rural environment where land use is closely tied to the hydrology of features such as Doak Springs and Molty Smith Lake. For genealogists and local historians, the map is a primary record of the area's social geography, preserving the locations of numerous family and community burial grounds including Saint Peters Cem, Evergreen Cem, and New Bethel Cem. The settlement pattern extends to small locales like Loebau and Leo, connected by an intricate network of county and private roads that trace the historic boundaries of central Texas ranch and farm land.
