About this map

Maverick and Norton anchor this portion of Runnels County, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of the Colorado River and its numerous tributaries. The rural character of the region is evident in the network of county roads and private lanes that connect family landmarks and local burial grounds, such as Maverick Cemetery, Castleberry Cemetery, and Norton Cemetery. Water management is a central feature of the local geography, visible in the Moore Lake Dam and the resulting Moore Lake, alongside other bodies of water like Lloyd Lake.

Drainage systems including Oak Creek, Hog Creek, Mule Creek, and Mesquite Creek carve through the terrain, leading toward the Colorado River. The presence of Bull Hollow and the various creeks illustrates the natural topography that has influenced settlement patterns and land use in this part of Texas. These details provide a clear picture of the community’s relationship with its environment and the essential infrastructure that supports local life.
