About this map

The Santa Fe Railway corridor anchors the northern reaches of Lampasas County, where the settlement of Lometa serves as a central hub at the junction of US Hwy 183 and US Hwy 190. This cattle-country landscape is defined by a dense network of seasonal drainages and named draws, including Pecan Draw and Indian Camp Draw, which carve through the Edwards Plateau terrain toward Lynch Cr and its tributaries.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant markers of early settlement, such as Long Cove Cem and various named springs like Panther Spring and Jennings Springs. The geography transitions from the flatlands around the Lometa Air Strip to more prominent elevations like Grassy Knob and Messanger Mtn in the east. The map records the persistence of traditional land divisions, with numerous county roads such as Co RD 78 and Co RD 58 providing access to isolated draws like Pole Bar Canyon and Happy Hollow.
