2022 Map of Moulton

About this map

The Lavaca River and its numerous tributaries, including Kuehns Cr and Ponton Cr, define the drainage of this south-central Texas landscape along the Gonzales and Lavaca county line. The settlement of Moulton serves as the primary hub, while the nearby site of Old Moulton reflects the shifting nature of rural centers over time. For genealogists, the area is notably dense with burial sites, ranging from the large Saint Joseph Catholic Cem and Slavonic Cem to smaller, private locations like the Freidrich Family Plot and the Bunting Family Cem. The terrain is marked by gentle undulations, punctuated by the distinct elevation of Frederick Mound. This modern survey records the persistent rural character of the region, where isolated communities like Nickel and Henkhaus remain connected by a network of farm-to-market roads and county routes crossing various creeks such as Sulphur Br and Peach Cr.
