1964 Map of Mahomet

About this map

Mahomet and the surrounding Hill Country ranch land are detailed in this mid-1960s survey along the Burnet and Williamson county line. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the North Fork San Gabriel River and its numerous tributaries, including Ramsey Branch and Bertram Branch. For the local historian, the map provides a look at the scattered rural communities of the era, such as Gabriel Mills and Sycamore Springs, alongside established landmarks like Greens Crossing. The map is particularly useful for genealogists, as it identifies several burial grounds including Mahomet Cem, Mt Horeb Cem, and Gabriel Mills Cem. Natural landmarks like Bald Knob, Pilot Knob, and Cedar Bluff stand out against the numerous gravel pits that hint at the local mineral industry during this period of Texas history.
