2010 Map of Marlin

About this map

The Marlin townsite sits east of a sweeping bend in the Brazos River, serving as a central hub for this region of Falls County. This landscape is defined by the river’s complex drainage patterns, where tributaries like Deer Creek, Bean Branch, and Post Oak Creek carve through the terrain. The presence of McCullough Slough and Barganier Slough highlights the low-lying, hydrologically active nature of the river valley. Local industry and land use are evident in features such as the Falls Cattle Company Lake and the Oil Mill Lake, pointing to a history tied to both ranching and processing.
