About this map

The Colorado River meanders through this portion of Runnels County, defining a landscape of deep creek drainage and rural crossroads. The settlement of Maverick serves as a central point in this agricultural region, situated near the Maverick Cem and Castleberry Cem, which offer significant touchstones for local genealogical research. To the northeast, the small community of Norton marks the edge of the survey area, connected by a network of county roads like FM-383.

Drainage patterns across the quadrangle are heavily influenced by several named waterways, including Oak Cr, Hog Cr, and Juniper Cr, which feed toward the river basin. The terrain features distinct landmarks such as Bull Hollow in the southeast corner and small impoundments like Moore Lake and Lloyd Lake. This 2012 survey illustrates the enduring rural character of central Texas, where land use is dictated by the winding path of the river and the creek beds that cut through the surrounding plains.
