About this map

The Lavaca River meanders through this portion of Jackson County, carving a path through a landscape defined by its intricate drainage network. In the south, the settlement of Morales serves as a local anchor near the intersection of FM 822 and Morales Rd. This area reflects a long-standing agricultural and ranching tradition, where numerous seasonal waterways such as Water-Hole Branch, Hall Branch, and Beard Branch traverse the terrain.

Genealogists and local historians will find the Partridge Cemetery southeast of the main settlement, a quiet landmark preserved within the rural grid. Notable infrastructure includes the Wallace Bridge crossing Coal Creek in the north, along with a web of county roads like Co Rd 14 and Co Rd 1 that connect various homesteads and pasturelands. The map captures the quiet, established character of coastal plain life, where names like Hardys Sandy Creeks and Chalk Branch speak to the local topography and soil conditions.
