About this map

Milano and the nearby community of Elevation anchor this central Texas landscape, where a dense network of country roads connects family-named landmarks and historical burial grounds. The quadrangle is notable for its high concentration of rural cemeteries, including Wolf Cemetery, Smyrna Cemetery, and Hurt-Graham Cemetery, which offer valuable locations for genealogical research.

Hydrological features define the terrain, from Beaver Creek and Pin Oak Creek in the north to the sprawling waters of Zalmanek Lake and Newton Lake Number 1. These reservoirs, managed by structures like the Texas No Name Number 50 Dam, illustrate the local water management essential for this region's agriculture. The presence of Dave Hollow and the Sugar Mill Branch further characterizes the drainage patterns that have shaped the land's settlement and use over decades.
