About this map

Fort Hood Military Reservation dominates this central Texas landscape, where the sprawling military facility meets the growing residential fringes of Killeen and Copperas Cove. Centered on the Robert Gray Army Airfield, the map reveals the complex intersection of federal land and local community development in the early 1990s. The terrain is defined by several prominent rises, including Sevenmile Mountain, Ivy Mountain, and the namesake McMillan Mountains.

Genealogists can find several small burial sites preserved within or near the reservation boundaries, such as Henderson Cem, Sibley Cem, Browns Cem, and Mayberry Cem. The rural history of the area is further marked by the presence of local schools like Willow Spring Sch and Clear Creek Sch. Waterways like Reese Creek and South Nolan Creek cut through the limestone hills, while the Lampasas River flows along the southern edge, illustrating the natural drainage patterns that have shaped settlement from the early ranching era through modern military expansion.
