About this map

The small communities of McMahan, Seawillow, Tilmon, and Brownsboro dot the landscape of Caldwell County, where cattle ranching and farming have long defined the character of the terrain. This area is heavily influenced by the drainage patterns of Plum Creek and its many tributaries, including Tenney Creek and Daniels Cr. A significant concentration of family and community burial sites, such as Clark Chapel Cem, Hardshell Cem, and the dual Jeffrey Cem - West and Jeffrey Cem - East, provides a detailed record of local genealogy and early settlement patterns.

From Comanche Flats in the north to Round Mtn in the southeast, the geography is a mixture of flatlands and low rises connected by a dense network of farm-to-market roads and county lanes. The presence of the Soil Conservation Service Site 23 Reservoir and various watercourses like Sixmile Br and Hines Br illustrate the ongoing efforts to manage water resources for the agricultural needs of this Central Texas region.
