2012 Map of Moran

About this map

Moran serves as the central hub for this portion of Shackelford County, positioned at the junction of several farm-to-market roads. The town's grid is clearly defined by residential streets such as Ground St, Railroad St, and Brewster St. To the north, the small settlement of Sedwick sits near the crossing of Hubbard Cr. The landscape is characterized by intermittent drainage and several notable elevations, including the Greer Mountains in the northwest and Mugginsville Mtn to the east. Several cemeteries, such as Greer Cem, Johnson Cem, and Moran Cem, provide valuable landmarks for genealogists researching families from this rural Texas region. Significant water features like Moran City Lake and Wylie Lake suggest a landscape managed for local water needs amidst the many creeks feeding into Deep Cr.
