About this map

The settlement of Texas Hill and the community of Dills anchor this survey of the northern Florida landscape in the early 21st century. The map reveals a high density of rural burial grounds, including the Walker Cemetery, Texas Hill Cem, and Roseland Cem, which serve as vital landmarks for genealogical research in Jefferson County. These sites are situated among a network of local thoroughfares such as Ashville Hwy and Jefferson Heights Rd, connecting family lands and agricultural plots.

Water features define the natural drainage of the area, with Wolf Cr winding through the center, flanked by localized basins like Simpson Lake, Silver Lake, and Razor Lake. The presence of several family-named roads and landmarks, such as Sneeds Cem and Milton Cem, underscores the deep-rooted land ownership patterns that persisted even as modern infrastructure like the Post Office and local residential developments shaped the growing outskirts of the county seat.
